Multi-faceted visualization of rich text corpora

摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for multi-faceted visualization of rich text corpora. A data set comprising a plurality entities, facets relations is visualized by generating the in set, wherein indicates connections along single view using edges. The entities instances particular concept, classes between pairs entities. compound node comprises representation primary entity, surrounded representations one or more secondary connected external relations. internal can be represented as edges connecting two facet nodes from different number crossings reduced adjusting position order nodes. optionally rotated based on, example, global spring force model to reduce an average length and/or allow edge bundling.
