Abstract
A computing device receives user selection of a data source and a natural language command directed to the data source. The device identifies a first keyword and a second keyword in the natural language command. The first keyword corresponds to a first data field from the data source and the second keyword expresses a limit on a range of data values for the first data field. The device generates a visual specification that specifies the data source, a plurality of visual variables, and a plurality of data fields from the data source, including the first data field. The visual variables determine characteristics of visual marks in a data visualization according to the second keyword, and each of the visual variables is associated with a respective data field of the plurality of data fields. The device generates and displays the data visualization based on the visual specification.
