Chart Generator Skill

This skill creates text-based visualizations and structured reports for displaying experimental results, particularly for the translation semantic drift experiment.

Instructions

To generate visualizations:

1. Accept experimental data (typo rates and semantic distances)
2. Use Claude's native text formatting to create visualizations
3. Save reports to markdown or text files
4. Create ASCII art charts if needed

Visualization Types

1. Text-Based Results Table

Tabular display of typo rates vs semantic distances in markdown format.

2. ASCII Bar Chart

Simple bar chart representation using text characters.

3. Line Chart (for Automated Experiments)

ASCII art line chart showing progression of semantic distance across typo percentages.

4. Summary Report

Comprehensive markdown report with analysis and interpretation.

Implementation

Use Claude's native text processing to:

• Format data into readable tables
• Create ASCII art visualizations
• Generate markdown reports with proper structure
• Add interpretive commentary and insights

Usage Examples

Example 1: Single Run Report

For a single sentence experiment, create a concise report with translation chain and distance.

Example 2: Automated Experiments Chart

Input data:

• Typo rates: [0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.50]
• Average distances: [0.45, 0.52, 0.58, 0.63, 0.70, 0.75, 0.81]

Output (markdown table):

| Typo Rate | Avg Semantic Distance | Interpretation        |
|-----------|----------------------|-----------------------|
| 20%       | 0.45                 | Moderate drift        |
| 25%       | 0.52                 | Moderate drift        |
| 30%       | 0.58                 | Moderate-high drift   |
| 35%       | 0.63                 | Moderate-high drift   |
| 40%       | 0.70                 | High drift            |
| 45%       | 0.75                 | High drift            |
| 50%       | 0.81                 | Severe drift          |

Output Format

Save results to markdown files in results/ directory with:

• Title and timestamp
• Experimental parameters (typo rates, number of sentences, etc.)
• Data tables
• ASCII visualizations (bar charts, line charts)
• Summary statistics
• Interpretation and insights

For automated experiments specifically include:

• Sample sentences with typos at each level
• Average distances per typo percentage
• Trend analysis (linear, exponential, etc.)
• Observations about translation robustness

Notes

• NO PYTHON CODE - Use Claude's native text formatting only
• Save all final results to results/ directory
• Intermediate working files can go to tmp/
• Markdown format for easy viewing and conversion
• Suitable for terminal display and documentation
• Support both single-run reports and automated experiment charts
