Last updated:July 22, 2026

Common questions about Co-occurrence Network on macOS cover 3 areas: suitable scenarios, chart interpretation, and readability when there are too many nodes.

FAQ

What scenarios is a Co-occurrence Network chart suitable for?

  1. A Co-occurrence Network chart is suitable for analyzing relationships between fields.
  2. Common scenarios include tag co-occurrence, keyword association, and user-interest relationship analysis.
  3. Node size usually represents how often a field appears, while link thickness represents how often two fields appear together.

How do I read a Co-occurrence Network chart?

  1. Start with node size. Larger nodes usually mean the field appears more often.
  2. Then review link thickness. Thicker links usually mean a stronger relationship between two fields.
  3. If there is no link between nodes, there is no direct relationship shown between them.

What should I do if there are too many nodes to read clearly?

  1. Use Data Filter first to reduce the amount of data shown in the chart.
  2. It is recommended to keep the number of nodes within about 20 for better readability.
  3. If needed, adjust the layout and style settings to highlight the most important nodes.
