Abstract

A method uses natural language processing for visual analysis of a dataset. The method includes receiving a first natural language (NL) input directed to a data source, from a first client. The method also includes parsing the first NL input into tokens based on a grammar and the data source. The method also includes generating and outputting an intermediate NL response, to a second client, based on the tokens and output modality of the second client. In response to receiving a user input to provide missing information: the method also includes generating an input query based on the user input; and querying the data source using the input query, to obtain a result set. The method also includes generating and outputting, to the second client, a first NL output and a snapshot of a data visualization, based on the result set and the output modality of the second client.
