Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for displaying relationships in content. From several entities that appear in a set of content items and for which representations are displayed in a graphical user interface (GUI), the method receives a selection of one or more of the entities through the representations in the GUI. For each non-selected entity of a set of non-selected entities of the several entities, the method determines a count of content items in the set of content items in which the one or more selected entities and the non-selected entity appear. The method displays in the GUI a visualization of the representations of the several entities that indicates which of the entities are selected and the counts for each of the set of non-selected entities.
