摘要：

Data visualization deals with the visual representation of data and has been applied to facilitates data exploration in various applications. However, existing visualization tools and packages (e.g., Tableau and D3) often require tedious manual specifications and programming. It is still not an easy task to quickly create effective visualization designs, especially for non-expert users. In this talk, I will introduce our recent research on how machine learning techniques can enable automated generation and evaluation of visualizations, such as standard charts, graph visualization and infographics.
