Visualization

Open ganadiotis opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Recently Dan McCreary published this note on Auto-Generating KG Documents, which i found relevant.

In it he mentioned mkdocs, as well as Mermaid, a library for generating drawings using Markdown.

I was not aware of it, but it looks like it would make sense to use it, too, starting with the visualization of the Layers

I see the following taxonomy visualisations in PKG:

  • Of the graph itself
    • Top container nodes
    • All nodes
  • Of visual elements stored in the graph
    • Stored in a node
      • {Input method classification}[^*]
    • Creating/linking nodes
      • {Input method classification}

For example, Mermaid would easily create a visualisation in a node but to modify/reuse part of the graph, it would need a dialect or a transformation mechanism.


[^*] The input method classification could be, e.g.

  • free-draw
  • pre-defined constructs
  • text-generated
