大语言模型正推动数据科学向越来越自主的智能体工作流演进,现有系统已能支持多步骤、长时间运行的分析任务。随着自动化程度提升,传统界面难以满足两大核心需求:一是观察智能体推理过程与证据演化,二是执行中干预以调整方向或深化有价值路径。现有交互方式虽提升了可见性并开放了干预点,但多针对单轮对话设计,难以应对长期分析中出现的并行分支与动态决策结构。本文提出AdaLens,一个面向长期自主数据分析的交互式监控与调控系统。它采用基于故事线的表示法,整合分析计划、执行进度、中间结果及数据列参与情况,并提供基于分析元素的操控交互,实现方向引导与执行控制。通过两个案例研究与用户实验验证,证明其有效支持分析师对长流程智能体分析的监控与调控。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large language models are pushing data science toward increasingly autonomous and agentic workflows, with recent systems already supporting multi-step and long-running analyses. As these workflows become more autonomous, conventional interfaces no longer provide adequate support for two critical requirements: observability for understanding an agent's evolving reasoning and evidence, and steerability for redirecting low-value directions or deepening promising ones during execution. Existing interactive approaches improve process visibility and open intervention points, but they remain largely designed for discrete, turn-by-turn exchanges rather than the parallel branches and evolving decision structures of long-running agentic analysis. We study this need as interactive oversight in long-running agentic data analysis and present AdaLens, an interactive system for monitoring and steering ongoing runs. AdaLens combines a storyline-based representation that unifies analytical plans, execution progress, intermediate findings, and data-column involvement with steering interactions grounded in these analytical elements for directional guidance and execution control. We evaluate AdaLens through two case studies and a user study, examining how it supports analysts in monitoring and steering long-running agentic data analysis.
