Abstract
A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for statistical clustering inferred from natural language to drive relevant analysis. The mechanism receives a natural language text from a user and processes the natural language text to identify an entity of interest and a focus of statistical analysis. The mechanism performs a follow-up question and answer conversation with the user to receiving from the user one or more driving factor values for the one or more driving factors. The mechanism determines at least one cluster of entities matching the one or more driving factor values and generates at least one data visualization of the data in the corpus for the focus of statistical analysis having a scope that is narrowed based on the at least one cluster of entities matching the one or more driving factor values.
