Visualizing Temporal Interval Hierarchies
摘要
We introduce a method for visualizing the temporal intervals output by nfer, a language and tool for event trace comprehension. Visualizing these intervals is challenging because they may be arbitrarily nested in a hierarchy and because multiple intervals with the same identifier may occur concurrently. Our tool, nvis, solves these problems to present the output of nfer in a human interpretable, interactive web interface. We introduce an algorithm to solve the hierarchy and concurrency problem, and present a case study using automatically learned rules from our industrial partner.
