abstract = {Euler diagrams are common and user-friendly visualizations
for set relationships. Most Euler diagrams use circles, but circles
do not always yield accurate diagrams. A promising alternative is
ellipses, which, in theory, enable accurate diagrams for a wider
range of input. Elliptical diagrams, however, have not yet been
implemented for more than three sets or three-set diagrams where
there are disjoint or subset relationships. The aim of this paper is
to present eulerr: a software package for elliptical Euler diagrams
for, in theory, any number of sets. It fits Euler diagrams using
numerical optimization and exact-area algorithms through a two-step
procedure, first generating an initial layout using pairwise
relationships and then finalizing this layout using all set
relationships. container-title: Proceedings of International
Workshop on Set Visualization and Reasoning}
