Visual logics help people: An evaluation of diagrammatic, textual and symbolic notations
2017
2017 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC)
Our aim is to provide empirical evidence that diagrammatic logics are more effective than symbolic and textual logics in allowing people to better understand information. Ontologies provide an important focus for such an empirical study: people need to understand the axioms of which ontologies comprise. A between-groups study compared six frequently-used axiom types using the (textual) Manchester OWL Syntax (MOS), (symbolic) description logic (DL) and concept diagrams. Concept diagrams yielded
