Project aims

The project aims to develop and validate a method for creation and management of visual and multi-modal rich data queries over standalone and distributed knowledge graphs by data professionals and lay users.
The vision of the project is to provide an option for seamless creating of rich visual queries, allowing query scaffolding from visual data schema exploration or from natural language texts and providing context-aware meaningful auto-completion over the data sets of practical size and heterogeneity (including DBPedia, Wikidata and large custom data sets), with support for distributed queries.
The methods for automated and incremental data schema extraction from the variety of the real-world data sets shall support the vision.

    Open source code Check the branch dss-based-schemata from Viziquer repository in GitHub for the visual tool version that works with a separate data schema server.

    The data shape server (serving the names for auto-completion) is in its own repository on GitHub.
