DATAWEAVER: Authoring Data-Driven Narratives through the Integrated Composition of Visualization and Text

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Data-driven storytelling has gained prominence in journalism and other data reporting fields. However, the process of creating these stories remains challenging, often requiring the integration of effective visualizations with compelling narratives to form a cohesive, interactive presentation. To help streamline this process, we present an integrated authoring framework and system, DataWeaver, that supports both visualization-to-text and text-to-visualization composition. DataWeaver enables users to create data narratives anchored to data facts derived from "call-out" interactions, i.e., user-initiated highlights of visualization elements that prompt relevant narrative content. In addition to this "vis-to-text" composition, DataWeaver also supports a "text-initiated" approach, generating relevant interactive visualizations from existing narratives. Key findings from an evaluation with 13 participants highlighted the utility and usability of DataWeaver and the effectiveness of its integrated authoring framework. The evaluation also revealed opportunities to enhance the framework by refining filtering mechanisms and visualization recommendations and better support authoring creativity by introducing advanced customization options.

Is Artificial Intelligence the Avengers of the Web Analytics Universe

#artificialintelligence

When we talk about Artificial intelligence, we immediately recollect the science fiction blockbuster movies of the '80s and '90s like the Terminator, the Fifth Element and AI. These movies set a pathway for future scientists who have then researched the possibilities of simulating human behavior in robots. But back then, there was no concept of Big data processing which is vital for machine learning since there has to be huge processing of data as responses to different human emotions. When the technology matured with respect to Big data processing, it opened up infinite possibilities of applications of Artificial intelligence. Autonomous cars, AI chatbots, and AI enabled security checks, are some of the recent advents in the field of AI and machine learning.

The use case scenarios for blockchain technology seem to be never-ending. From Ethereum platforms like Shipchain looking to fundamentally disrupt the way the world tracks shipping and logistics information, to people collecting new-age Neopets in the form of collectable CryptoKitties, the beginning of the blockchain revolution has just begun. Every industry on the planet is now questioning whether or not the blockchain will be its greatest asset or biggest threat--and companies are quickly moving into the space, fueled by a fear of missing the "next big thing." The rise of big data has presented a slew of issues for both big businesses and everyday consumers. Major companies--from healthcare to entertainment to advertising, marketing, and beyond--have become more and more aware of every digital nuance: the way their website functions, how fast consumers can load their products, and even how exposed they are to a hack or data breach.
