This study will analyze natural language syntax tree visualizations to compare visualization methods in order to choose the optimum solution for visualizing a BM syntax tree.Currently no syntax tree visualization for BM has been introduced, and no visualization is yet available in the form of computer software or a prototype.Methods that can be dealt with in creating a BM syntax tree include: tokenizing, a performing search and comparison, matching with the associated rules, and composing.Ten systems were analyzed, and the Link Grammar system was found to be the most viable.The Link Grammar system does not have a hierarchical structure that reflects the language syntax as compared to the SSTC (Structured String-Tree Correspondence) application which does.However, the SSTC shows the tree structure in a hierarchical manner, but it does not have a suitable method to follow in visualizing the BM sentence syntax tree.
