ABSTRACT:
A visualization graph is provided on a computer. Data corresponding to a plurality of entities is stored, wherein a semantic net includes the entities and wherein the entities are linked to each other by a plurality of relations. In response to a query with respect to an entity selected from the plurality of entities, providing a visualization graph representing the results of the query, representing a plurality of entities having a common relation as a first node on the visualization graph. In response to a predetermined stimulus causing the entities comprised at the first node to be displayed, and in response to a further predetermined stimulus causing the graph to restructure so that the node replaces the displayed entities.
