Abstract
The techniques described herein provide tools that summarize a dataset by creating a final set of segments that, when visually presented via a histogram or other data presentation tool, show the distribution of at least a portion of the data. To create the final set of segments, the techniques described herein may collect or receive a dataset with distinct values, and divide the dataset into a number of segments that is less than or equal to a segment presentation threshold (e.g., ten segments). After creating the final set of segments, the techniques may configure and/or present data visualizations, such as histograms, for the created segments so that an observer is provided with a good viewing experience.
