DynaVis: Dynamically Synthesized UI Widgets for Visualization Editing
Priyan Vaithilingam, Elena L. Glassman, Jeevana Priya Inala, Chenglong Wang
Abstract
Users often rely on GUIs to edit and interact with visualizations — a daunting task due to the large space of editing options. As a result, users are either overwhelmed by a complex UI or constrained by a custom UI with a tailored, fixed subset of options with limited editing flexibility. Natural Language Interfaces (NLIs) are emerging as a feasible alternative for users to specify edits. However, NLIs forgo the advantages of traditional GUI: the ability to explore and repeat edits and see instant visual feedback.
