Abstract:
A computer-implemented method includes analyzing a first dataset to extract metadata that corresponds to a first visualization; analyzing a second dataset to extract metadata; comparing the metadata of the datasets; deriving based on the comparing, a level of correlation between attributes of the datasets; establishing a score for each of the levels of correlation; determining that a first attribute of the first dataset and a first attribute of the second dataset are a match in response to the establishing of a score for the level of correlation of the first attributes of the datasets; determining that the datasets are related in response to the determining that the first attributes of the datasets are a match; and directing the displaying of a second visualization, the second visualization being a visual representation that includes data from the second dataset.
