Systems and Methods for Generating Multimodal Representations to Communicate Data Uncertainty

A computing device, comprising:

• a display;
• one or more processors;
• and
• memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing one or more programs configured for execution by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for:
• in response to a user query regarding a dataset that includes variability:
• obtaining the dataset that includes one or more data fields and data corresponding to the one or more data fields;
• determining data uncertainty corresponding to the data;
• generating a multi-modal data representation of the data and the data uncertainty, including:
• rendering a data visualization that represents the data and the data uncertainty;
• generating, according to statistics of the dataset, text content describing the data and the data uncertainty;
• translating the text content into a speech synthesis markup language to generate an audio narrative of the text content;
• and
• synchronizing the data visualization, the text content, and the audio narrative according to a timestamp of the audio narrative;
• and
• causing the multi-modal data representation to be presented at a user interface of an electronic device.
