ExQueX: Exploring and Querying XML Documents

Summary: ExQueX enables interactive XML exploration: search, ranking, and filtering; results become tree-queries or building blocks for abstract-tree queries. Visual interface with filters enables schema-free, incremental query building for XML understanding. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
