Automatic style sync · Node search · Multi-mode network map
Make your network maps more beautiful,
and exploring your data easier

📌 What's new
  • Style sync: Node labels now automatically match node color and size, and link labels match link color and width. Link colors can also follow a gradient between the two connected nodes' colors.
  • Node search: Find any node instantly by name or condition, even in complex networks.
  • Right-click menu: Select All / Select Inverse / Select Neighbor, check node and link properties, view the ego network, focus on a single cluster, and save your selection as a new visualization tab or a dataset.
  • Multi-mode visualization: Visualize networks with three or more node sets on a single map.
🔍 How to use it
Give matching groups a matching look
  • On the Style > Node tab, assign Color by group (🎨)
  • Sync label color with node color (🔗)
  • On the Style > Link tab, click the Color swatch and check Sync with Node Color
Make the keywords that matter, stand out
  • On the Style > Node tab, assign Size by group
  • Sync label color with node color(🔗 )

Lost in a complex network?
Find node(s)
  • Click the search icon (🔍) in the right toolbar, or press Ctrl+F
  • Type your search term and press Enter
  • Search by node label (name, keyword, etc.) or by node attribute
  • Matching node(s) are highlighted and selected
The biggest group for a closer look
  • Ctrl + drag on the canvas to select your largest group
  • Right-click and choose Add Selection to Dataset
  • The selection appears as a new dataset in the data panel on the left
  • Run any Network analysis using the selection as your input dataset
Map people, affiliations, and interests together

Key Updates
NetMiner 5 is available on both Windows and macOS.
Turn on automatic updates in Preferences to stay current.
Text analysis improvements and fixes
  • English morphological analysis: Fixed an issue where compound words registered in the user dictionary were split and counted separately due to lemmatization.
  • Korean morphological analysis
    • Fixed an issue where words were incorrectly split during analysis when part of a word registered in the Thesaurus, Compound Words, or Inclusion Words dictionary also appeared in Exception Words. 

※ Results may differ from previous versions in the following cases. We recommend noting the software version used or re-running the analysis:
- Analyzing English text together with a user dictionary
- Analyzing Korean text where the same word or part of a word appears in both Exception Words and another dictionary
AI Tutor now supports local LLMs
You can now run AI Tutor using a free language model installed on your own computer. Select Ollama in Preferences to try it.
※ Ollama must be installed separately beforehand, and a high-performance environment and model are recommended for good results.
Renaming nodes in 2-mode visualization
Fixed an issue where node labels shown in 2-mode network visualization results could not be renamed.
We’ve also fixed several known bugs.
Technical support for NetMiner 4 will end on December 31, 2026.
However, you'll still be able to use and renew NetMiner 4 after that date, and our support team will still be there if you have questions.

  • Existing NetMiner 4 files are fully compatible with NetMiner 5, with the exception of process logs.
  • Even when a menu name stays the same, the underlying method behind it may have improved (for example, Text Analysis > Word Extraction or LDA) — in these cases, results can differ from what you got in NetMiner 4.
  • To check whether a NetMiner 4 feature you rely on is available in NetMiner 5, please see the online user manual. If you have questions about a specific menu or feature, feel free to reach out to us.
