USING VISUAL TECHNIQUES TO MANIPULATE DATA
First Claim
1. A system that facilitates manipulation of visualized data, comprising:
- an aggregation component that gathers a plurality of data that represents a data set and renders a visual representation of the data set in response to a request, the data set includes a search history; and
a personalization component that accepts a customization that filters by a segment of at least one of the plurality of data, the aggregation component updates the visual representation of the data set based on the customization, wherein the plurality of data includes structured data, unstructured data, or combinations thereof.

Abstract
Various types of data can be collected into a data set and related content and/or related concepts across the data in the data set and/or across search histories can be displayed as a visual representation. The related content/concepts can be presented as a function of incremental revealing of relationships. After reviewing the visual representation, a user can customize the data set and relationships by specifically excluding a related data segment. The visual representation can be applied across multiple searches or other obtained data. Through interaction with the visual representation, a user can drill down into common linkages of the data to more narrowly focus on a subset of the data and/or to refocus a search result and/or to provide annotations.

10. A computer-implemented method of facilitating manipulation of data, comprising:
-
gathering a plurality of data into a data set; providing a visual representation of the data set as at least one of a time line, a bar chart, a histogram, a Venn diagram, or combinations thereof, receiving one or more customizations related to a segment of data included in the data set; applying the customizations; and outputting the result of the applied customizations in a visualized format. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-executable system comprising:
-
means for gathering data to be included in a first data set and a second data set, the data is gathered as a function of a search history and a current search request; means for providing a visual representation of related content between segments of the gathered data in the first data set and the second data set; means for displaying the visual representation with at least one customizable linked path for related content or a customizable unlinked path for unrelated content; means for obtaining a request to customize the visualization to exclude a user specified related content, and means for applying the customization to the first data set and the second data set, the means for displaying the visual representation displays the applied customization as a visual representation of a time line, a bar chart, a histogram, a Venn diagram, or combinations thereof. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
