Abstract

An embodiment provides methods and arrangements for visualizing and exploring natural-language text.

The directed graph is converted to an outline graph comprising core nodes and layer nodes. The outline graph is simplified, and there is created, for display on a user interface, an interactive visual representation of the simplified outline graph. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.
