**Output**

This method will generate different visualizations to allow exploring 'ontology annotated' results.
It generates ontology circles and ontology pie chart visualizations.
 
Circles: 
The inner circles (white circles) are the most specific (or at depth=maximum depth) level of detail containing
the individual observation items. 

Sizing: 
* Simple sizing: Each observation item is given the same size. The more observation items found for a certain ontology circle, the bigger it will be.
* Quantification based sizing:  Each observation item is sized according to the given quantification column. 

Colors:
* Red borders show the items that have more than one parent in the given ontology scheme. The current visualization avoids redundancy by placing each
circle inside the parent circle where it has more siblings with observations (not yet an iterative process, so nr of siblings is calculated only at start).
