Data visualization is often used as the first step while performing a variety of analytical tasks. With the advent of large, high-dimensional datasets and strong interest in data science, there is a need for tools that can support rapid visual analysis. In this paper we describe our vision for a new class of visualization recommendation systems that can automatically identify and interactively recommend visualizations relevant to an analytical task.

- Despite the advent of visualization tools like Tableau, we’re still in Current are akin to a movie catalog Where you can see the list of available movies, Select ones you want And see information about them. If you don’t know the movie you want to watch, you’ll have to look at a whole lot of movies before you what you desire In other words, current visualization systems involve sub Before you get the desired result
- Let’s move to Much like netflix and amazon recommendations of today,
- Why is this timely? Increasingly larger datasets with large numbers of records and attributes As a result Motivating the need for recommendations for the unexplored areas
- Second reason is that everyone wants to be a data scientist (and who are we to argue), but don’t really have the skills. We need to build the tools that help them get the insights they need.
- So what do current systems lack. I’m a database guy, and for some reason, we love chemistry based acronyms, so here’s a new one.
- Provide a.. Is the dip in february in sales expected? Or is it anomalous? Do not take into account typical browsing patterns For instance, if the analyst wants to find all products that took a hit in february? Can we find all attributes on which two products differ? Often users focus on a tiny portion of the dataset, perhaps due to inexperience.
- As it turns out.. We aren’t the only ones preaching this wisdom. Partially addressing these limitations Including one from tableau and one appearing at this very conf from the jeff and the uw folks I’m going to tell you about our systems to give you a flavor of what we’re talking about
- Caters to the user specification of a comparative task What SeeDB will provide are .. Among all the vis Key issue here is that
- Caters to the user specification of a search task
- In our workshop paper, we identified 5 recommendation axes: Which is very hard Ton of work from the viz community on this
- In building these vizrec systems there are a number of interesting systems challenges What should be done online and offline Online, how do we maximize sharing and parallelism in evaluating these recs? How do we … that we know are not useful How do we leverage app to return results faster, or return approximate results?
- In the age of data science
- Overall architecture Middleware layer that sits between the UI and the DBMS User task (compare married/un) is broken down into a collection of q; Optimizer handles these q using a combination of … optimizations and makes repeated q to the DBMS
- Note of caution
