Abstract
A computing system and method explores a knowledge repository by accepting a natural language query from a user, determining a distance between the query and every category in every partitioning of the knowledge repository, and displaying a radial graph (322) of the nearest categories. Further, in response to a user selecting a category, visually displaying matching elements in the category along with its nearest neighbor categories in a scatter plot (324).
