Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method to generate a display image to audit an ontology, the method comprising: selecting a concept in the ontology with the computer device to provide a currently selected focus concept; formatting in a first window region of the display image the currently selected focus concept; formatting in a second window region of the display image first ontological concepts consisting of parent concepts that are one level of hierarchy higher than the currently selected focus concept in the ontology, and wherein the second window region is located above the first window region and includes the first ontological concepts in a first scrollable text window; formatting in a third window region of the display image second ontological concepts consisting of child concepts that are one level of hierarchy lower than the currently selected focus concept in the ontology, and wherein the third window region is located below the first window region and includes the second ontological concepts in a second scrollable text window; and formatting in a fourth window region of the display image multiple lateral relationships' target concepts, wherein the lateral relationships' target concepts are laterally associated via a lateral relationship with the currently selected focus concept in the ontology, wherein the fourth window region is along a horizontal axis of the first window region and includes the lateral relationships' target concepts in a third scrollable text window, and wherein the first, second, third, and fourth window regions are distinct from one another and formatted for concurrent viewing.
