NL2INTERFACE: Interactive Visualization Interface Generation from Natural Language Queries
This addresses the challenge of data visualization accessibility for non-technical users by automating interface creation, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing natural language processing and visualization techniques.
The paper tackles the problem of creating interactive multi-visualization interfaces by developing NL2INTERFACE, which automatically generates these interfaces from natural language queries, enabling users to interact with and transform data without learning tools or programming.
We develop NL2INTERFACE to explore the potential of generating usable interactive multi-visualization interfaces from natural language queries. With NL2INTERFACE, users can directly write natural language queries to automatically generate a fully interactive multi-visualization interface without any extra effort of learning a tool or programming language. Further, users can interact with the interfaces to easily transform the data and quickly see the results in the visualizations.
