CITATION NETWORK VIEWER AND METHOD

摘要

A visualization-based interactive legal research tool that generates from a multi-dimensional citation network a semantics-constrained citation sub-network (20) that focuses on one individual issue in which a user is interested, and puts the sub-network on an interactive user interface ("UI") (100), which allows the researcher to browse, navigate, and jump over to start new sub-networks on different issues that are relevant to original issues.
