- specproc 3mo agoI love them! It's a really nice, fun way to explore a corpus. Cosmograph for this sort of thing is great, it supports graphs as well as 2D projections, and is blazing fast. That said, I've never had a client or stakeholder show any interest in using one, beyond an initial "that's cool". And UMAP etc., is just as much an art as a science. You'll go mad trying to get the perfect layout. Great toy if you're into that sort of thing, but yeah, fiddly and overwhelming for most.
- leonickson 3mo agoHi, I love the genre too. Cosmograph is wonderful, I did try it, but because of its license restriction I could not use it for this project. I do agree that beyond an initial "that's cool" this map may not contribute much, "and that's why I didn't make it the main product. I already had the data as I was building other things (extension, paper page) and wanted a bit of a cool factor so people would take a look at the project. The value is what's under each dot, the enriched page (TLDR, genes/drugs/diseases, trials, 3D structures, code, datasets, full text), extension and the MCP for agents.
