CLPGUI: a generic graphical user interface for constraint logic programming over finite domains
CLPGUI is a graphical user interface for visualizing and interacting with
constraint logic programs over finite domains. In CLPGUI, the user can control
the execution of a CLP program through several views of constraints, of finite
domain variables and of the search tree. CLPGUI is intended to be used both for
teaching purposes, and for debugging and improving complex programs of
realworld scale. It is based on a client-server architecture for connecting the
CLP process to a Java-based GUI process. Communication by message passing
provides an open architecture which facilitates the reuse of graphical
components and the porting to different constraint programming systems.
Arbitrary constraints and goals can be posted incrementally from the GUI. We
propose several dynamic 2D and 3D visualizations of the search tree and of the
evolution of finite domain variables. We argue that the 3D representation of
search trees proposed in this paper provides the most appropriate visualization
of large search trees. We describe the current implementation of the
annotations and of the interactive execution model in GNU-Prolog, and report
some evaluation results.Comment: 16 pages; Alexandre Tessier, editor; WLPE 2002,

Visual Integration of Data and Model Space in Ensemble Learning
Ensembles of classifier models typically deliver superior performance and can
outperform single classifier models given a dataset and classification task at
hand. However, the gain in performance comes together with the lack in
comprehensibility, posing a challenge to understand how each model affects the
classification outputs and where the errors come from. We propose a tight
visual integration of the data and the model space for exploring and combining
classifier models. We introduce a workflow that builds upon the visual
integration and enables the effective exploration of classification outputs and
models. We then present a use case in which we start with an ensemble
automatically selected by a standard ensemble selection algorithm, and show how
we can manipulate models and alternative combinations.Comment: 8 pages, 7 picture
Visualization designs for constraint logic programming
We address the design and implementation of visual paradigms for observing the execution of constraint logic programs, aiming at debugging, tuning and optimization, and teaching. We focus on the display of data in CLP executions, where representation for constrained variables and for the constrains themselves are seeked. Two tools, VIFID and TRIFID, exemplifying the devised depictions, have been implemented, and are used to showcase the usefulness of the visualizations developed
