Data-Driven Insight Synthesis for Multi-Dimensional Data

Summary: DAISY learns data-insight interestingness from user annotations rather than fixed, brittle rules. Cost-efficient annotation and MCMC-based synthesis enable scalable discovery of diverse, user-aligned insights across multidimensional data. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
