Abstract
A computing device identifies concept terms related to an input phrase based on data in a data set. The input phrase defines an initial scope of a concept search. The computing device presents the concept terms in a graphical user interface (GUI) and a GUI element in the GUI to represent the input phrase. Upon a selection of at least one concept term, the computing device presents a visual representation of a relationship between the selected concept term(s) and the input phrase in the GUI using the GUI element, and a count of documents available to be retrieved in the GUI based on the relationship.
