Circosとは？
Circos is a software package for visualizing data and information in a circular layout. It is ideal for exploring relationships between objects or positions, and for creating publication-quality infographics with a high data-to-ink ratio. Originally designed for genomic data, it can visualize data from any field. It is controlled by plain-text configuration files, making it easily automatable and incorporable into data pipelines.

Circosの使い方は？
Circos is controlled through plain-text configuration files; there is no interactive user interface. Users write configuration files that define data tracks, links, and formatting rules.
