Example project: Performance Analytics accelerator

To complement this documentation, we offer a sample NLG Studio project created by Arria's developers. You can download the Performance Analytics accelerator project from here.

The Performance Analytics project generates a sales report that covers sales for the current year, year-on-year sales, and trends analysis. The narrative this project generates drills down to discuss the sales drivers and offsets by region and by product.

The project creates two different types of narratives:

  • one based on standard deviation

  • another based on performance threshold

The project also includes user-defined functions that handle:

  • aggregation of data

  • business rules

  • ordering

  • number formatting

There is built-in logic for analysis in a number of analytics-focused scripts, such as:

  • analyzing level-two and level-three entries and finding drivers and offsets

  • analyzing level-two year-on-year data and finding drivers and offsets

  • finding the difference between actual and target sales

  • determining weight distribution

  • returning results of analysis of an object

You can use this project as both a learning tool, and a project to build on or customize for your own use.
