visualizing RDF query result

My SPARQL Query returns a set of results, I want to visualize the Query results using an RDF Visualization algorithm, such that the results are related together and also I retrieve some more info about it.

Example:

if My domain is Movie industry, and I query about all movies directed by James Cameron, I get about 10 or 11 results, something like, 

 'The Terminator'
 'Rambo: First Blood Part II'
 'Aliens'
 'The Abyss'
 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day '
 'True Lies'
 'Titanic'
 'Avatar'

I want to make a visualized graph between all the results, showing the main relation "directed by James cameron" and also searching for some other relation through semantic web, try something like this: enter image description here

The above result came from relFinder where the Entities we compared between are the movies themselves,note that relFinder is semanticWeb-Based.

I am interested on similar algorithms to Generate Queries based on some algorithms to retrieve results to relate to the original Query to give more detailed relations

I also want to know if there's any dotNet libraries to facilitate the process?

There are a number of .Net libraries for RDF and SPARQL that will let you do the querying part but you'll need to find a visualization library that suits your needs and combine the two.

In terms of RDF/SPARQL libraries for .Net you have the choice of the following:

  • dotNetRDF - This is my preference but then I am the lead developer ;-)
  • SemWeb.Net - No longer actively maintained (as of 2009) and no SPARQL 1.1 support
  • Intellidimension SemanticsSDK - Primarily a commercial product, free edition has limited features and restrictive license

I'm not a visualization expert so you'd have to go research that yourself
