Determining affinities for data set summarizations

Abstract:

Systems and methods are disclosed for associating summarizations of visualizations of a data set based on affinities between the summarizations. For a data set, a number of summarizations may be created that summarizes the data set in different ways. The summarizations may be linked, such that selecting a data element of a first summarization causes display of a second summarization. To assist in linking of summarizations, suggested linkings between summarizations can be determined based on affinities of the two summarizations. Affinities can reflect similarities in the data content of the two summarizations, such as an output of a first summarization being a valid input to the second summarization.
