Visual Analytics for Understanding Draco's Knowledge Base
Draco has been developed as an automated visualization recommendation system
formalizing design knowledge as logical constraints in ASP (Answer-Set
Programming). With an increasing set of constraints and incorporated design
knowledge, even visualization experts lose overview in Draco and struggle to
retrace the automated recommendation decisions made by the system. Our paper
proposes an Visual Analytics (VA) approach to visualize and analyze Draco's
constraints. Our VA approach is supposed to enable visualization experts to
accomplish identified tasks regarding the knowledge base and support them in
better understanding Draco. We extend the existing data extraction strategy of
Draco with a data processing architecture capable of extracting features of
interest from the knowledge base. A revised version of the ASP grammar provides
the basis for this data processing strategy. The resulting incorporated and
shared features of the constraints are then visualized using a hypergraph
structure inside the radial-arranged constraints of the elaborated
visualization. The hierarchical categories of the constraints are indicated by
arcs surrounding the constraints. Our approach is supposed to enable
visualization experts to interactively explore the design rules' violations
based on highlighting respective constraints or recommendations. A qualitative
and quantitative evaluation of the prototype confirms the prototype's
effectiveness and value in acquiring insights into Draco's recommendation
process and design constraints.Comment: To be presented at VIS 202
