Visual Knowledge Discovery on Semantic Wikis

A di erent approach to visualizing formalized knowledge on social semantic web applications is proposed and implemented in to the TaOPis system. A knowledge visualizer is build on top of the semantic wiki subsystem, using OWL based ontologies which are generated from user supplied meta-data. The application displays visual connections between classes and instances, as well as provides access to object properties and allows for visual search of related tags. Various use-cases are presented and analyzed which show that visual search has major advantages to formal niKlas-based querying.
