Large-scale RDF Graph Visualization Tools. AI3 Assembles 26 Candidate Tools The pending UMBEL subject concept “backbone” ontology will involve literally thousands of concepts. In order to manage and view such a large structure, a concerted effort to find suitable graph visualization software was mounted.

This post presents the candidate listing, as well as some useful starting resources and background information. A subsequent post will present the surprise winner of our evaluation. Starting Resources See Various Example Visualizations For grins, you may also like to see various example visualizations, most with a large-graph bent: Software Options Here is the listing of 26 candidate graph visualization programs assembled to date: Cytoscape – this tool, based on GINY and Piccolo (see below), is under active use by the bioinformatics community and highly recommended by Bio2RDF.org GINY implements a very innovative system for sub-graphing and allows for stunning visuals.
