A pedigree chart is a simple and easy to read diagram showing the occurrence and appearance or phenotypes of a particular gene in an organism and its ancestors. Pedigrees use a standardized set of symbols:

  • squares: males
  • circles: females
  • diamonds: the sex of the person is unknown
  • filled-in (darker) symbol: someone with the phenotype in question
  • shaded or half-filled symbol: heterozygotes
  • horizontal and a vertical line: connects parents to their offspring
  • ....


Project Ideas

GUI mockups

  • User experience
  • Functionality & Features
Appearance Calculation Others
Color Scheme Auto probability Tool Tip
Shape Selection Auto connection
(while changing affected nodes)
Vertical/Horizontal Selection Scaling


Tip: showing some images (Photoshop, Gimp, Inkscape, ...) makes it easier to follow your ideas

Application design

  • Expected technical difficulties
  • Fancy libraries you plan to use
.
tree.json

Your data

  • D3 layouts requires specific data structure for trees

Roadmap

  • Week 1
  • Week 2
