What was the criteria for choosing which essays to visualize? I don't see a lot of his popular one...

markvitals4• 7 years ago

We only pick the one that have a structure that is easy to visualize. Which usually looks like headings and sub-headings or a list of things.

lots of work and many facts, wow. Do you do the analysis manually or extract the facts somehow automatically?

markvitals4• 7 years ago

All the work was done manually. We just selected those essays which has a structure, summarized either in bullet points or headings. We edited each fact, reducing text, because with icon you don't need as much text. Regarding automation I experimented with text extraction (using abstractive text summarization) but haven't got good results yet.

Understood, thanks. The "Where Are The Big Ideas" is my favourite.
