Comparator - HTML (TAPoRware)

This tool compares two documents by comparing the words in each according to user specifications. XML and plain text versions are also available in the TAPoRware toolsets.

This tool’s functionality has been incorporated into Voyant available online at www.voyant-tools.org

Visualizing Literature: Virtue and Vice

Virtue and Vice, from the Visualizing Literature toolset, allows users to select a text from Visualizing Literature's list of grade school curriculum exemplar creative commons texts and graph out all instances of words suggestive of virtue and vice within the text. All texts are searchable, and can be sorted by writer, title, publication year, grade level, availability for analysis and availablility of a direct link to the text. Please note that, as this toolset is still in beta, the selection of texts is currently limited, though over 300 texts are forthcoming.

As of 2014, this toolset is no longer available as the website has been taken down. It may still be viewed via the Internet Archive.

SIMILE Widgets: Welkin

Welkin is a free tool for visualizing complex RDF models offered for download by the SIMILE Project. Rather than permitting users to focus on specific nodes, it provides analytical views such as an overview of a dataset's connectivity or potential mappings between resources and ontologies. It runs best through Java WebStart and is compatible with Windows, OS X and Linux.

LodLive

LodLive is a web-based tool developed to demonstrate Linked Data standards applied to browsing RDF resources with a simple interface. Users can search preset datasets, including DBpedia and Freebase, or search a resource available at a web address of the user's choice. LodLive is also available for download.

RDF Gravity

RDF Gravity (RDF Graph Visualization Tool) is a free, open-source visualization tool from Salzburg Research's Knowledge Information Systems Group. It supports RDF graph structures and OWL ontologies, including multiple RDF files, and offers a variety of filters for its visualizations.

Visual Browser

Visual Browser is a Java application for visualizing RDF data using the Jena framework. The resultant graphs are animated and permit users to expand and hide nodes and switch the view of edges, allowing them to focus on a small part of the network. The visualization engine is derived from TouchGraph LLC and follows the navigation approach of WebOFDAV, a system based on the concept of exploratory navigation to reduce chances of getting “lost in hyperspace” situation.     

RDF2SVG (Rhizomik)

RDF2SVG is a web-based tool from the Rhizomik initiative for transforming RDF/XML data into an SVG representation. It can also accept N-triples and N3 input, and includes a feature for filtering the user's defined preferred language from the source data.   

RelFinder

RelFinder is an RDF relationship discovery tool developed as part of the Visual Data Web toolset and based on the Adobe Flex open source framework. It is designed to provide an overview of RDF data through interactive visualization and exporation. Features include highlighting and filtering, and the tool permits both global and detail views. It is optimized for RDF data that provided standard SPARQL access.

W3C RDF Validation Service

The W3C RDF Validation Service is a free, web-based tool for checking RDF documents for errors and displaying the results. It can display in triples, a graph, or a combination of the two, and can format the graph in a variety of file formats including PNG, SVG and GIF. Documents can be pasted directly into the provided form or from a provided URI.

YAGO

YAGO is a semantic knowledge base of over 10 million entities, and over 120 million facts about those entities, developed by the Max Planck Institut Informatik. Its base derives from Wikipedia, WordNet and GeoNames, and the accuaracy has not only been manually evaluated, but relations are also provided with an annotation stating its confidence value. The YAGO ontology includes spacial and temporal dimensions, and integrates WordNet's thematic domains as well. It can be queried or browsed right from the website, and the full ontology is available for download.
