Visual representation of a cell-based calendar transparently overlaid with event visual indicators for mining data records
First Claim
1. A method for mining data records comprising:
- causing, by a system having a processor, display of a visual representation of a cell-based calendar having cells representing the data records, wherein the cells have corresponding visual indicators corresponding to values of the respective data records;
arranging the cells in plural blocks corresponding to time intervals of the cell-based calendar; and
providing event visual indicators that transparently overlay cells in at least some of the plural blocks, wherein the event visual indicators represent events that occurred in time intervals corresponding to the at least some blocks, wherein the events are separate from activities represented by the data records, and wherein providing the event visual indicators transparently overlaid over the cells in the at least some blocks depict a relationship and relative impact between the data records and the events.

Abstract
A system causes display of a visual representation of a cell-based calendar having cells representing data records, where the cells have corresponding visual indicators corresponding to values of the respective data records. The cells are arranged in plural blocks corresponding to time intervals of the cell-based calendar. Event visual indicators transparently overlay cells in at least some of the plural blocks, where the event visual indicators represent events that occurred in time intervals corresponding to the at least some blocks. The events are separate from activities represented by the data records. Providing the event visual indicators transparently overlaid over the cells in the at least some blocks depict a relationship and relative impact between the data records and the events.

9. An article comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution cause a computer to:
-
present for display a first visual representation of a calendar having a first axis representing first time intervals and a second axis representing second time intervals, wherein the calendar has blocks of cells, and wherein the cells have respective visual indicators representing corresponding values of corresponding activities; integrate, into the first visual representation, event visual indicators that represent respective events, wherein the event visual indicators are transparently overlaid over the cells in respective ones of at least some of the blocks; receive a selection to drill down into a portion of the calendar; and present for display a second visual representation of the portion, wherein the second visual representation has a first axis and a second axis at least one of which differs from the corresponding first axis and second axis of the calendar. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system comprising:
-
at least one processor; and a calendar-based visualization module executable on the at least one processor to; cause display of a visual representation of a cell-based calendar having cells representing data records, wherein the cells have corresponding visual indicators corresponding to attribute values of the respective data records; arrange the cells in plural blocks corresponding to time intervals of the cell-based calendar; and provide event visual indicators that transparently overlay the cells in at least some of the plural blocks, where the event visual indicators represent external events separate from activities represented by the data records, wherein positioning of the event visual indicators is based on time of occurrence of the corresponding events, and where providing the event visual indicators transparently overlaid over the cells in the at least some blocks depicts a relationship and relative impact between the data records and the events. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
