Visual Graph Query Construction and Refinement
Summary: Visage: first demonstration of interactive, visual graph query construction without coding. A data-driven, match-sampling workflow lets analysts iteratively refine subgraph queries with varying specificity on large networks (e.g., Rotten Tomatoes film-actor-director graph).
