2. AI-Driven Data Visualization Technologies

2.1. Machine Learning Data Visualization

1. Improve data understanding and model interpretation
Machine learning data visualization displays machine learning models, data sets, and various parameters and results in the training process through visual means such as graphs and charts. These visualization tools help users better understand complex machine learning models and algorithms and the characteristics and distribution of data sets. For example, tabular data visualization can help users identify the most relevant features and improve model performance through feature engineering and selection. [4]This understanding increases user confidence and efficiency in data analysis and decision-making, helping to gain faster insight into user behavior and market trends in the Internet industry.
2. Optimize model performance and diagnostic capability
Machine learning data visualization can significantly improve model performance and diagnostic capabilities when working with sequence, multidimensional array, and graph data. [5]For sequential data, such as time series data and natural language text, visualization can reveal time dependencies and patterns in the data to optimize model design. Multi-dimensional array data, such as images and videos, can be visualized by convolutional neural networks to help identify critical features and regions, improving classification and detection tasks. Graph data visualization can show the relationship between nodes and edges, and graph neural networks can be used to capture complex network structures to improve the effectiveness of social network analysis and recommendation systems. These optimizations improve the model’s accuracy and the user’s understanding and trust in the model’s output results.
3. Improve user experience and engagement[6]
Ai-driven machine learning data visualization can also significantly improve user experience and engagement. With a more intuitive visual presentation, users can more easily understand the data and analyze the results to make more informed decisions. Especially in the Internet industry, personalized visualization schemes can be automatically generated according to the needs and preferences of different users so that users can get the data presentation that best meets their needs. [7]For example, on e-commerce platforms, users can more intuitively see their consumption trends and recommended products through the data visualization of user purchasing behavior, thus improving shopping experience and satisfaction. Overall, machine learning data visualization plays a vital role in enhancing user interaction and engagement, further boosting the development of the Internet industry.

2.2. Natural Language Processing Data Visualization

Over the years, the rapid development of Natural Language Processing [8](NLP) technology has provided an excellent opportunity to explore a natural language-based data visualization interaction paradigm. With the help of advanced NLP toolkits, visuality-oriented Natural Language Interfaces (V-NLI)[9] have recently emerged as complementary inputs to traditional WIMP interactions, supporting the generation of visualizations based on the user’s NL queries. The advent of V-NLI has dramatically improved the usability of visualization tools :(a) convenient and novice friendly. Natural language is a skill mastered by the public. By leveraging natural language to interact with the computer, V-NLI turns off tool-specific actions to the user, as shown in Figure 1, providing a convenient analysis flow for beginners. (b) Intuitive and effective. It is agreed that visual analytics is most effective when users can focus on their data rather than the interface operation of the analytics tool. With the help of V-NLI, users can express their analytical tasks in their own words. (c) Humanistic care. Nowadays, much of the information we get is obtained through visual means. V-NLI is an innovative non-visual access method that facilitates the engagement of blind and low vision (BLV) [10,11]populations.
1. Improve content understanding and user interaction
In natural language processing (NLP), data visualization can significantly improve content understanding and user interaction. Users can quickly capture key themes, sentiment trends, and essential words in large amounts of text data through visualizations of text data, such as word cloud maps, sentiment analysis charts, and topic model charts. This intuitive presentation helps the user understand the content faster and enhances the user’s sense of participation in the information acquisition process.[12] On social media platforms, sentiment analysis charts can show the changing trend of public sentiment in real-time, helping users better understand hot topics and public opinion trends, thus improving user experience and platform interaction rate.
2. Improve the personalized recommendation and search experience
Data visualization in NLP also dramatically improves the personalized recommendation and search experience. The system can more accurately capture user preferences and provide more precise content recommendations through visual analysis of a user’s search history and browsing behavior. For example, on the e-commerce platform, by visualizing users’ past purchasing behaviors and commenting on sentiment analysis results, the recommendation system can more effectively predict users’ shopping needs and improve the relevance of recommendations and user satisfaction. [13]In addition, search engines can use visualization technology to display the multidimensional characteristics of search results, helping users quickly find the most relevant information, thereby optimizing the search experience. This personalized and efficient recommendation and search mechanism significantly improves the overall user experience on the Internet platform.

2.3. Computer Vision Data Visualization

1. Improve image recognition and content display
The data visualization combined with computer vision and artificial intelligence significantly improves the effect of image recognition and content presentation. On social media and photo-sharing platforms, intelligent image recognition technology can automatically label and classify pictures uploaded by users and visually display the subject and content of the photographs. For example, after a user uploads a travel photo, the system can automatically recognize landmarks and activities in the image and generate relevant tags and recommended content. This intelligent and visual processing method not only improves the user’s understanding of the picture content but also increases the interaction and interest of the platform.
2. Improve shopping experience and personalized recommendations
In e-commerce, computer vision and [14]AI data visualization have greatly improved users’ shopping experience. Through image recognition technology, the system can automatically analyze the photos of products uploaded by users and provide recommendations for similar products. For example, when a user uploads a shoe photo in a shopping app, the system can automatically identify the shoe’s style, color, and brand and visually recommend similar or related items. This personalized recommendation based on vision improves the accuracy of the recommendation and enhances the user’s shopping satisfaction and platform stickiness.
3. Improve medical diagnosis and health monitoring
In the medical field, data visualization combined with computer vision and AI provides powerful support for medical diagnosis and health monitoring. Doctors can diagnose diseases more quickly and accurately through intelligent analysis and visual display of medical image data. For example, AI systems can automatically analyze medical images such as X-rays[15] and [16]CT scans, flag possible lesion areas, and visually present the analysis results to help doctors make more effective diagnostic decisions. In addition, health monitoring devices can collect and analyze users’ physiological data in real time and display health trends and abnormalities through visual charts, helping users to understand their health status promptly and take necessary measures. This intelligent and visual medical service improves the user’s health management experience.
