US Patent 11043298 System and method for visual analysis of event sequences

Techniques are disclosed for creating event sequences from event data and then providing a visual analysis of event sequences. An event sequencing application analyzes event-related data in order to group events in accordance with predetermined grouping criteria and to sort the events in a chronological order to generate the event sequences. The event sequencing application further provides calculated sequence-specific metrics and a visual representation of event sequences for an event set, thus allowing a user to sort, filter, query, and perform various other types of analysis over the event sequences.
