Beautiful Data

My Mphil thesis was on sparse matrix vector products and while visualising the datasets I worked with I felt that the patterns the sparse matrices took were often quite interesting. Recently I noticed that the University of Florida Sparse Matrix Collection was displaying the visualisation work done by Yifan Hu which you can see here.

The data is truly beautiful and I thought It would make a lovely wallpaper. I stitched together various images to create a hi-resolution image which I am now sharing with the world.
