Knoocks - A Visualization Approach for OWL Lite Ontologies
Simone Kriglstein, Günter Wallner · 2010
With increasing popularity of ontologies in various communities, visualizations of their content and structure became more and more important. In the past few years a number of visualization approaches were developed with the focus either on the representation of the relationships between classes or on the hierarchical structure and instances. However for several applications, a visualization which combines information about instances, classes and hierarchical as well as non-hierarchical relationships is from interest. In this paper we present Knoocks (Knowledge Blocks), which is a visualization approach with focus on both the interconnections within the ontology and the instances in conjunction with their hierarchical structure.
