Abstract

Systems and methods for data analysis are described. Embodiments of the present disclosure data analysis include displaying, via a data analysis interface, a data visualization in a first region of the data analysis interface; and displaying, via the data analysis interface, an analysis thread visualization in a second region of the data analysis interface. The analysis thread visualization depicts an analysis thread graph including a first node corresponding to the data visualization and an edge corresponding to an analysis path between the first node and a second node.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
displaying, via a data analysis interface, a data visualization in a first region of the data analysis interface;
displaying, via the data analysis interface, an analysis thread visualization in a second region of the data analysis interface, wherein the analysis thread visualization depicts an analysis thread graph including a first node corresponding to the data visualization and an edge corresponding to an analysis path between the first node and a second node; and
displaying, via the data analysis interface, a plurality of queries in a third region of the data analysis interface.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the analysis thread graph comprises an additional edge corresponding to an additional analysis path between the first node and a third node, wherein the third node comprises a sibling node of the second node.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the plurality of queries includes a query requesting additional data about an element of the data visualization.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the plurality of queries includes a query corresponding to the second node.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
receiving user input selecting the query corresponding to the second node; and
displaying an additional data visualization corresponding to the second node based on the user input.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving user input selecting a query from the plurality of queries; and
generating an additional data visualization corresponding to the query.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
identifying a dataset corresponding to the data visualization; and
transforming the dataset based on the query, wherein the additional data visualization is based on the transformed dataset.

8. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
adding a third node to the analysis thread graph based on the user input.

9. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
generating an answer to the query based on the user input.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
identifying a dataset corresponding to the data visualization; and
generating the plurality of queries based on the dataset.

11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a user input indicating the second node of the analysis thread graph via the analysis thread visualization; and
displaying an additional data visualization corresponding to the second node based on the user input.

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing code for data analytics, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:
generate an analysis thread graph including a first node corresponding to a data visualization and an edge corresponding to an analysis path between the first node and a second node;
receive user input identifying the second node;
select an additional data visualization corresponding to the second node based on the user input;
display the data visualization in a first region of a data analysis interface; and
display an analysis thread visualization in a second region of the data analysis interface.

13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , the code further comprising instructions executable by the processor to:
display a plurality of queries in a third region of the data analysis interface.

14. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor;
at least one memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor;
a graph component configured to generate an analysis thread graph including a first node corresponding to a data visualization and an edge corresponding to an analysis path between the first node and a second node;
a data analysis interface configured to display the data visualization in a first region of the data analysis interface and an analysis thread visualization in a second region of the data analysis interface; and
a navigation component configured to receive user input identifying the second node and to select an additional data visualization corresponding to the second node based on the user input.

15. The apparatus of claim 14 , further comprising:
a query component configured to identify a dataset corresponding to the data visualization and to generate a plurality of queries based on the dataset.

16. The apparatus of claim 14 , further comprising:
an answer component configured to generate an answer to a query based on another user input.

17. The apparatus of claim 14 , further comprising:
a visualization component configured to transform a dataset to obtain a transformed dataset, and to generate the data visualization based on the transformed dataset.
