  • Patent number: 11836172
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for facilitating data visualization generation. In one implementation, dataset intent data, visual design intent data, and insight intent data determined from a user input natural language query are obtained. A set of candidate intent recommendations is generated using various combinations of the dataset intent data, visual design intent data, and insight intent data. Each of the candidate intent recommendations is incorporated into a set of visualization templates to determine eligibility of the candidate intent recommendations. For eligible candidate intent recommendations, a score associated with a corresponding visualization template is determined. Based on the scores, a candidate intent recommendation and corresponding visualizations template is selected to use as a visual recommendation for presenting a data visualization.

  • Patent number: 11782576
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a data visualization system detects insights from a dataset and computes insight scores for respective insights. The data visualization system further computes insight type scores, from the insight scores, for insight types in the detected insights. The data visualization system determines a selected insight type for the dataset having a higher insight type score than unselected insight types and determines, for the selected insight type, a set of selected insights that have higher insight scores than unselected insights. The data visualization system determines insight visualizations for the set of selected insights and generates, for inclusion in a user interface of the data visualization system, selectable interface elements configured for invoking an editing tool for updating the determined insight visualizations from the dataset. The selectable interface elements are arranged in the user interface according to the insight scores of the set of selected insights.
