  • Patent number: 11900085
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described for enabling a user to import a library into a computer program under development. The library includes a data storage interface, one or more semantic objects, and one or more data manipulation or data analysis operations. A user is able to reference code of the library within the computer program under development to generate a dataset from data obtained via the data storage interface and associate the one or more semantic objects with the dataset to generate a semantically-annotated dataset. Systems, methods, and devices enable, based on the importing: the user to invoke a semantic-guided operation of the library that utilizes the semantically-annotated dataset to infer an aspect of a data manipulation or data analysis operation to be performed on the semantically-annotated dataset; or the suggestion of a data manipulation or data analysis operation to the user based on the semantically-annotated dataset.
