  • Generate customized data visualization from natural language query
    Patent number: 12675474
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for natural language query processing and data visualization generation. The system can analyze the natural language query for semantic attributes and compare the semantic attributes against the semantic data of a set of data visualizations to generate context for the natural language query in the form of a personalized set of semantic data. Based on the semantic attributes and the semantic data, the system can select a set of exemplars that best match the natural language query and using the exemplars, and a library specification, generate library specification programming code for generating a structured query to resolve the natural language query. Based on the results of the structured query, the system can generate a data visualization as a response to the natural language query.

  • Natural language query processing
    Patent number: 12265528
    Abstract: Techniques for handling natural language query processing are described. In some examples, a sequence-to-sequence model is used to handle a natural language query. Post-processing of a result of the sequence-to-sequence model utilizes fine-grained information from an entity linker. In some examples, the sequence-to-sequence model and aspects of a natural language query pipeline are used to handle a natural language query.
