IBM Watson News Explorer combines Alchemy News API and d3.js data visualization library to automatically construct a news information network and present large volumes of news results in an understandable fashion. News Explorer was created by the Watson Cognitive Visualization Lab (now called the Visual AI Lab), of which I was a part. I completed the user interface design and development of the application, in addition to co-developing the data visualizations with Steve Ross, who also developed the back-end. News Explorer has had over 2 million unique queries over the years, and received a prestigious 'Kantar Information is Beautiful Award.'
