Abstract

We present a new approach for visualizing and exploring large networked information structures which may represent, for instance, linked information resources or metadata structures such as ontologies. An interactive matrix display is used for showing relations between concepts and concept hierarchies displayed along the two axes of a matrix. Initial user testing shows performance advantages as well as reduced visual search in comparison to conventional graph representations.
