Abstract
Exploratory data analysis (EDA) plays an increasingly important role i n statistical analysis. EDA is difficult, however, even with the help of modern statistical software. We have developed an assistant for dat a exploration, based on Al planning techniques, that addresses some of the strategic shortcomings of conventional software. This paper descr ibes the design and behavior of the system and discusses an experiment al evaluation that demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
