Abstract
A visualization graph is provided on a computer by storing data corresponding to a plurality of entities and/or nodes, wherein a semantic net includes the entities and/or nodes and wherein the entities and/or nodes are linked to each other by a plurality of relations. A query is generated and performed on the data. Data is output in the form of a visualization graph representing the results of the query, wherein the graph has a focus entity or node defined by a user or the query. Context information is used to determine at least one entity and/or node to be output in the results that is indirectly related to the focus entity or node.
