Visualizing database queries

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Data analysts operating on large volumes of data often rely on visualizations to interpret the results of queries. However, finding the right visualization for a query is a laborious and time-consuming task. We propose SEEDB, a system that partially automates this task: given a query, SEEDB explores the space of all possible visualizations, and automatically identifies and recommends to the analyst those visualizations it finds to be most "interesting" or "useful".
