ShapeSearch: Flexible Pattern-based Querying of Trend Line Visualizations
Summary: ShapeSearch enables flexible pattern-based retrieval of trend-line visualizations using natural language and visual regular expressions. Its expressive shape-query algebra and optimized execution engine automate visual pattern search for data exploration. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
