N2 - The knowledge base of a knowledge representation and reasoning system can simultaneously be thought of as being logic-, frame-, and graph-based. We present a method for naturally extending this three-fold view to methods for visual interaction with the knowledge base in the context of SNePS 3 and its newly developed user interface. Addition to, and querying of, the knowledge base are tasks well suited to a frame or logical representation. Visualization and exploration on the other hand are best done through the use of propositional graphs. We show how these interaction techniques, which are extensions of the underlying knowledge base representation, augment each other to allow users to manipulate and view large knowledge bases.
