摘要
En 中文
Data visualization is by far the most commonly used mechanism to explore and extract insights from datasets, especially by novice data scientists. And yet, current visual analytics tools are rather limited in their ability to operate on collections of visualizations---by composing, filtering, comparing, and sorting them---to find those that depict desired trends or patterns. The process of visual data exploration remains a tedious process of
trial-and-error.
We propose zenvisage, a visual analytics platform for effortlessly finding desired visual patterns from large datasets. We introduce zenvisage's general purpose visual exploration language, ZQL ("zee-quel") for specifying the desired visual patterns, drawing from use-cases in a variety of domains, including biology, mechanical engineering, climate science, and commerce. We formalize the expressiveness of ZQL via a visual exploration algebra---an algebra on collections of visualizations---and demonstrate that ZQL is as expressive as that algebra. zenvisage exposes an interactive front-end that supports the issuing of ZQL queries, and also supports interactions that are "short-cuts" to certain commonly used ZQL queries. To execute these queries, zenvisage uses a novel ZQL graph-based query optimizer that leverages a suite of optimizations tailored to the goal of processing collections of visualizations in certain pre-defined ways. Lastly, a user survey and study demonstrates that data scientists are able to effectively use zenvisage to eliminate error-prone and tedious exploration and directly identify desired visualizations.
