Abstract
Facilitating navigation of a computer-navigable graph of sensed features that were gathered by recognition or estimation of one or more features of physical entities that were sensed over time by sensor(s) within a physical space. The computer-navigable graph includes multiple nodes including multiple signal segment nodes and multiple feature nodes. Each of at least some of the signal segment nodes evidence feature(s) represented in feature node(s). Navigation is facilitated by, for each of multiple signal segment nodes, identifying relationship(s) between the corresponding signal segment node and other node(s) of the graph. At navigation time, when a user navigates to the corresponding signal segment nodes, a visualization of any detected relationship may be rendered to the user. When the user interacts with the rendering in such a way as to select the relationship, the user is navigated to the other node.
