Abstract

TBox is a new way of visualizing the temporal relations in TimeML graphs. Until recently, TimeML's temporal relations were presented as rows in a table or as directed labeled edges in a graph. Neither mode of representation scales up nicely when bigger documents are considered and both make it harder than necessary to get a quick picture of the temporal structure of a document. TBox uses left-to-right arrows, box-inclusions and stacking as three distinct ways to visualize precedence, inclusion and simultaneity.
