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. |

The publications created during the project are reported on ViziQuer main page.
ViziQuer Tools LOD24 contains a list of 24 prominent Linked Open Data set schema and query environment definitions (runnable from within a docker style container), as well as visual presentations of their schema diagrams. A set of example data set schemas and their diagrammatic visualizations can be found on demonstration section of ViziQuer tool repository. We provide also a runnable code and examples for generating a Knowledge graph contents from the ViziQuer tool internal data schema. Query environment definitions (2023): Nobel Prizes, War Sampo, Mondial. NB! Use of updated versions of the environments at ViziQuer Playground, ViziQuer Tools or ViziQuer Tools LOD24 is recommended. Visual environment examples (2023): DBPedia examples and Wikidata examples. NB! Access the visual projects with query diagrams live on ViziQuer Playground. Running the projects on your premises (e.g., within the ViziQuer Tools suite) requires preloaded data schema of DBPedia or data schema of Wikidata, respectively. An external data schema explorer service (2023), running on MS Windows only, can be used for experiments with schema diagram descriptions (the module is superseded by a schema visualization module inside ViziQuer). |
