Abstract
A method constructs data visualization options. A user selects data fields from a data set. The process identifies a first plurality of data visualizations that use all of the user-selected data fields. For each data visualization, the process computes a score, based in part on visual patterns corresponding to statistical properties of data values of a user-selected data field. The process also identifies a second plurality of data visualizations, each using a majority of the user-selected data fields and also using a respective additional data field that is not one of the user-selected data fields. For each of the second plurality of data visualizations, the process computes a respective score, which uses data values of the respective additional data field. The process forms a recommended set of data visualizations including high-scoring data visualizations from both the first and second pluralities. The process presents the recommended data visualizations to the user.
