hape , there is no hard and fast rule for the meaning of these 3 columns,but the phonetic character itself will always be in the middle.

see my post on phonetic maps explained.

I should add that I only use tables as it's by far the easiest way to structure information in html, in fact it's the only possibility since CPod does not allow javascript in comments.

But what I would ideally want to do is have the phonetic root in the center and the characters using it placed at regular interval on an orbit around. There wouldn't be columns and dilemna what to put in what box.

Sorry, but I don't quite understand the role of the 3 columns...

Why is pan/betray in the middle column? Why is the middle column of the ban's empty? Any reason for this?

Anyway, I think these maps help a lot to have a new view on characters and their prononciation.

Thanks!

I remember knowledge mgt hype days, not specifically hyperbolic tree maps, however I still know quite a few people who can't live without mindmaps and supporting software. Being very visual, I do like maps actually,  I find them amazing, we could probably use them more for learning.

Here is an explanation of Hyperbolic Trees.

And here an example (Jave required).

That would be a nice navigational device for Hanzi, wouldn't it?

Hyperbolic tree: 双曲线树 (shuāngqūxiànshù)

双曲线 (shuāngqūxiàn) = Hyperbola

There are 3D-Versions also which are called

三维双曲线树 (sānwéishuāngqūxiànshù)

yes, that's cool, much smarter than the 2 concentric ellipses I use in my simple JavaScript - should be more adaptive, will fine tune when I have time (at least it's a single script)

Do you remember those "hyperbolic tree maps" from thw times of the golden Knowledge Management hype?
