Patent number: 11874877Abstract: A method uses natural language for visual analysis of a dataset, and is performed at a computer having a display, processors, and memory. The computer displays a data visualization based on a dataset retrieved from a database and receives a first user input to specify a natural language command related to the displayed data visualization. Based on the displayed data visualization and the natural language command, the computer identifies an initial range of values for a first data field in the dataset and displays an editable user interface control showing the initial range of values. The computer receives a second user input, at the user interface control, specifying a modified range of values for the first data field and retrieves an updated dataset from the database using the modified range of values for the first data field. The computer then updates the displayed data visualization using the updated dataset.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Tableau Software, Inc.Inventors: Vidya Raghavan Setlur, Sarah E. Battersby, Melanie Karla Tory, Richard Carl Gossweiler, III, Angel Xuan Chang, Isaac James Dykeman, MD Enamul Hoque Prince

Patent number: 9282376Abstract: Disclosed are computer implemented methods, systems, and non-transitory media for representing a plurality of time-bounded events in first and second grids. The first grid has a larger size than the second grid. The second grid represents a second set of time-bounded events in the plurality of time-bounded events. A user-movable window is presented at a first position within the second grid where it encompasses a first portion of the second grid. The time-bounded events in the first portion of the second grid are displayed as a first set of time-bounded events in the first grid. Responsive to user instructions to move a position of the window from the first position to a second position within the second grid, the window is moved to the second position where it encompasses a third set of time-bounded events. Further, the first grid is updated to display the third set of time-bounded events.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2015Date of Patent: March 8, 2016Assignee: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Richard Carl Gossweiler, III, David Scott Reiss, Mark Wagner, John Blackburn, Thomas Henry Taylor, Marisa B.
