Visual querying is essential for interactively exploring massive trajectory data. However, the data uncertainty imposes profound challenges to fulfill advanced analytics requirements. On the one hand, many underlying data does not contain accurate geographic coordinates, e.g., positions of a mobile phone only refer to the regions (i.e., mobile cell stations) in which it resides, instead of accurate GPS coordinates. On the other hand, domain experts and general users prefer a natural way, such as using a natural language sentence, to access and analyze massive movement data. In this paper, we propose a visual analytics approach that can extract spatial-temporal constraints from a textual sentence and support an effective query method over uncertain mobile trajectory data. It is built up on encoding massive, spatially uncertain trajectories by the semantic information of the POIs and regions covered by them, and then storing the trajectory documents in text database with an effective indexing scheme. The visual interface facilitates query condition specification, situation-aware visualization, and semantic exploration of large trajectory data. Usage scenarios on real-world human mobility datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

Natural Language Search (NLS) extends the capabilities of search engines that perform keyword search allowing users to issue queries in a more natural language. The engine tries to understand the meaning of the queries and to map the query words to t he symbols it supports like Persons, Organizations, Time Expressions etc.. It, then, retrieves the information that satisfies the users need in different forms like an answer, a record or a list of records. We present an NLS system we implemented as part of the Search service of a major CRM platform. The system is currently in production serving thousands of customers. Our user studies showed that creating dynamic reports with NLS saved more than 50% of our users time compared to achieving the same result with navigational search. We describe the architecture of the system, the particularities of the CRM domain as well as how they have influenced our design decisions. Among several submodules of the system we detail the role of a Deep Learning Named Entity Recognizer. The paper concludes with discussion over the lessons learned while developing this product.
We introduce Uncertain Natural Language Inference (UNLI), a refinement of Natural Language Inference (NLI) that shifts away from categorical labels, targeting instead the direct prediction of subjective probability assessments. We demonstrate the fea sibility of collecting annotations for UNLI by relabeling a portion of the SNLI dataset under a probabilistic scale, where items even with the same categorical label differ in how likely people judge them to be true given a premise. We describe a direct scalar regression modeling approach, and find that existing categorically labeled NLI data can be used in pre-training. Our best models approach human performance, demonstrating models may be capable of more subtle inferences than the categorical bin assignment employed in current NLI tasks.
This paper presents a portable phenotyping system that is capable of integrating both rule-based and statistical machine learning based approaches. Our system utilizes UMLS to extract clinically relevant features from the unstructured text and then f acilitates portability across different institutions and data systems by incorporating OHDSIs OMOP Common Data Model (CDM) to standardize necessary data elements. Our system can also store the key components of rule-based systems (e.g., regular expression matches) in the format of OMOP CDM, thus enabling the reuse, adaptation and extension of many existing rule-based clinical NLP systems. We experimented with our system on the corpus from i2b2s Obesity Challenge as a pilot study. Our system facilitates portable phenotyping of obesity and its 15 comorbidities based on the unstructured patient discharge summaries, while achieving a performance that often ranked among the top 10 of the challenge participants. This standardization enables a consistent application of numerous rule-based and machine learning based classification techniques downstream.
Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a non-invasive method of measuring neuromuscular potentials generated when the brain instructs the body to perform both fine and coarse locomotion. This technique has seen extensive investigation over the last two d ecades, with significant advances in both the hardware and signal processing methods used to collect and analyze sEMG signals. While early work focused mainly on medical applications, there has been growing interest in utilizing sEMG as a sensing modality to enable next-generation, high-bandwidth, and natural human-machine interfaces. In the first part of this review, we briefly overview the human skeletomuscular physiology that gives rise to sEMG signals followed by a review of developments in sEMG acquisition hardware. Special attention is paid towards the fidelity of these devices as well as form factor, as recent advances have pushed the limits of user comfort and high-bandwidth acquisition. In the second half of the article, we explore work quantifying the information content of natural human gestures and then review the various signal processing and machine learning methods developed to extract information in sEMG signals. Finally, we discuss the future outlook in this field, highlighting the key gaps in current methods to enable seamless natural interactions between humans and machines.
Utilizing Visualization-oriented Natural Language Interfaces (V-NLI) as a complementary input modality to direct manipulation for visual analytics can provide an engaging user experience. It enables users to focus on their tasks rather than worrying about operating the interface to visualization tools. In the past two decades, leveraging advanced natural language processing technologies, numerous V-NLI systems have been developed both within academic research and commercial software, especially in recent years. In this article, we conduct a comprehensive review of the existing V-NLIs. In order to classify each paper, we develop categorical dimensions based on a classic information visualization pipeline with the extension of a V-NLI layer. The following seven stages are used: query understanding, data transformation, visual mapping, view transformation, human interaction, context management, and presentation. Finally, we also shed light on several promising directions for future work in the community.
