Abstract: Provided is a process of refining Boolean queries, the process including: obtaining a query; searching a corpus of documents based on the query; selecting narrowing terms that pertain to respective subsets of the responsive documents; selecting broadening terms related to the query; instructing the user's computing device to present a graphical user interface comprising: graphical representations of the narrowing terms; graphical representations of the broadening terms; and one or more user inputs by which the user refines the query by adding a selected narrowing term or a selected broadening term; obtaining a user selection of a broadening term or a narrowing term; forming a refined query based on the user selection; searching at least part of the corpus based on the refined query to identify refined responsive documents; and instructing the user's computing device to present an updated graphical user interface with information about the refined responsive documents.

Abstract: Provided is a process including: obtaining a clustered graph, the clustered graph having three or more clusters, each cluster having a plurality of nodes of the graph, the nodes being connected in pairs by one or more respective edges; determining visual attributes of cluster icons based on amounts of nodes in clusters corresponding to the respective cluster icons; determining positions of the cluster icons in a graphical visualization of the clustered graph; obtaining, for each cluster, a respective subset of nodes in the respective cluster; determining visual attributes of node icons based on attributes of corresponding nodes in the subsets of nodes, each node icon representing one of the nodes in the respective subset of nodes; determining positions of the node icons in the graphical visualization based on the positions of the corresponding cluster icons of clusters having the nodes corresponding to the respective node icons; and causing the graphical visualization to be displayed.

Abstract: Provided is a process, including: obtaining a graph to be visually represented in a graphical user interface of a client computing device; obtaining a set of text labels each corresponding to a respective collection of the nodes; determining a two dimensional or higher layout of the icons in the visual representation; segmenting the field of view into a plurality of segments; determining which icons are disposed within each of the segments of the field of view; determining positions of the text labels in the visual representation relative to one or more icons representing nodes in the respective collection of nodes based on the segment of the field of view in which the one or more icons representing nodes in the respective collection are disposed; and causing the visual representation to be displayed.
