A Conversational User Interface for Software Visualization

Software visualizations provide many different complex views with different filters and metrics. But often users have a specific question to which they want to have an answer or they need to find the best visualization by themselves and are not aware of other metrics and possibilities of the visualization tool. We propose an interaction with software visualizations based on a conversational interface. The developed tool extracts meta information from natural language sentences and displays the best fitting software visualization by adjusting metrics and filter settings.
