Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) Uses AnyChart JS for Literary Data Visualization

September 17th, 2024 by AnyChart Team

Here's how researchers from the Austrian Academy of Sciences leverage AnyChart for literary data visualization in the form of an interactive JavaScript timeline chartVisualizing data from a literary work can clarify complex structures and patterns, enhancing the understanding of its content and context. For example, a timeline chart can effectively organize events mentioned in the text into an intuitive graphical form, which can be especially beneficial for historical texts. Today, we are pleased to share a project where AnyChart was instrumental in clearly revealing this temporal aspect.

Researchers from the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW, for Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften) have created an expanded digital edition of Third Walpurgis Night by Karl Kraus, an esteemed Austrian writer and satirist, who was nominated three times for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Written in 1933 but published only posthumously in 1952, this essay provides a critical analysis of the early National Socialist rule in Germany. The digital edition integrates the original text into its historical context with extensive commentary, glossary entries, and now also an interactive timeline developed using our JavaScript charting library.

Learn more about the project and how it employs AnyChart in our conversation with Bernhard Oberreither and Barbara Krautgartner from the Austrian Center for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage (ACDH-CH) at the ÖAW, who brought this project to fruition. (Stack: eXist-db/TEI Publisher.)

Pivot Table vs. Decomposition Tree: Advancing Data Insights

June 27th, 2024 by AnyChart Team

Comparing a pivot table with a decomposition tree for data analysisIn the evolving data landscape, the pivot table has long been a cornerstone of the data analyst’s toolkit. Traditionally used to summarize datasets in a condensed tabular form, pivot tables facilitate quick overviews and basic drill-down capabilities. However, as data sets grow larger and more complex, the static and manual nature of pivot tables can limit their effectiveness.

Enter the decomposition tree, an advanced data visualization technique that not only presents data but also uncovers deeper patterns and insights ad-hoc, all through its dynamic, interactive hierarchical structure. As a relatively new tool in the realm of data analysis and business intelligence, it is increasingly used as an effective alternative to a pivot table yet still often underrated, given its inherent potential.

This article explores several reasons why decomposition trees can be advantageous over traditional pivot tables, illustrated with real-world use cases.
