Abstract: In addition to the virtual, there is a vast amount of data present in the real world. Given recent advances in computer vision, augmented reality, and cloud services, we are faced with a tremendous opportunity to augment the structured data around end-users with insights. Coinciding with these trends, the number of data-rich end-user activities is also rapidly increasing. Thus, it is useful to investigate the process of data exploration and analysis in augmented and mixed reality settings. In this talk, we describe a data exploration platform that utilizes augmented reality to enable querying over real-world data. Bio Arnab Nandi is an Associate Professor of Computer Science & Engineering at The Ohio State University. Arnab's work focuses on bridging human interaction and data infrastructure, spanning areas of database systems, human-in-the-loop data analytics, and next-generation query interfaces. At Ohio State, he co-founded the OHI/O Program, that fosters a tech culture through hackathons and informal learning, and The STEAM Factory, an interdisciplinary research and collaboration network. Arnab is a recipient of the US National Science Foundation's CAREER Award, a Google Faculty Research Award, and IEEE's TCDE Early Career Award for his contributions towards user-focused data interaction. Arnab holds a PhD in Computer Science & Engineering from the University of Michigan.
