IntiVisor: A Visual Analytics System for Interaction Log Analysis.

Application developers frequently augment their code to produce event logs of specific operations performed by their users. Subsequent analysis of these event logs can help provide insight about the users' behavior relative to its intended use. The analysis process typically includes both event organization and pattern discovery activities. However, most existing visual analytics systems for interaction log analysis excel at supporting pattern discovery and overlook the importance of flexible event organization. This omission limits the practical application of these systems. Therefore, we developed a novel visual analytics system called IntiVisor that implements the entire end-to-end interaction analysis approach. An evaluation of the system with interaction data from four visualization applications showed the value and importance of supporting event organization in interaction log analysis.
