Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for querying a graph based on applying filters to a visual representation of the graph. The system allows complicated graph query operations to be performed with ease visually. During operation, the system obtains data indicating vertices and edges of a graph. The system displays a visual representation of the graph for a user. The system receives, from the user, a command defining a local graph filter comprising a region in the visual representation. The system then filters a representation of the graph, and stores the filtered representation.
