Universal Data Analyst (通用数据分析专家)

Introduction

An intelligent data analysis skill based on Data Ontology. Unlike keyword-based approaches, this skill uses LLM reasoning for every analysis, automatically identifying data types, selecting analysis methods, generating scripts, and outputting reports.

Supports both economic data (retail, subscription, finance, etc.) and non-economic data (scientific measurements, social networks, text, etc.), handling multiple formats including CSV, Excel, Parquet, JSON, and more.

How to Trigger

Simply upload a data file or send any of these types of messages:

• "Help me analyze this data"
• "What patterns are in this CSV?"
• "Explore this dataset"
• "Check the data quality for me"
• Directly upload .csv / .xlsx / .parquet / .json files

Core Design: Four-Layer Analysis Framework

Layer 1: Data Ontology
        ↓  What kind of existence is this? Entity type? Generation mechanism?
Layer 2: Problem Typology
        ↓  Descriptive / Diagnostic / Predictive / Prescriptive / Causal?
Layer 3: Methodology Mapping
        ↓  Match domain-recognized analysis frameworks
Layer 4: Validation & Output
           Data quality report + Analysis scripts + HTML/MD reports

Each layer invokes LLM reasoning without any hardcoded rules.

Analysis Workflow (7 Steps)

Flow Health Monitoring (NEW)

Each step has status tracking and error handling:

• Step Dependency Check - Automatically prevents subsequent steps when prerequisites fail
• Clear Error Messages - Provides explicit failure reasons and fix suggestions
• Flow Health Report - Outputs complete execution status and issue summary

If a step fails, you'll see:

⚠️ Flow Interrupted!
   Reason: Critical step 'Data Loading' failed: Encoding error

Fix Suggestions:
  1. File encoding may not be UTF-8, try manually specifying encoding parameter
  2. Common Chinese encodings: gbk, gb2312, gb18030

Supported Data Types

Economic Data

Non-Economic Data

Supported File Formats

• CSV / TSV (.csv, .tsv, .txt) - Auto encoding detection, supports utf-8, gbk, latin1, etc.
• Excel (.xlsx, .xls)
• Parquet (.parquet, .pq)
• JSON (.json)
• SQL Database (via connection string)

Encoding Fault Tolerance

CSV loading automatically tries multiple encodings:

• Auto encoding detection (if chardet library available)
• Fallback encodings: utf-8, utf-8-sig, gbk, gb2312, gb18030, latin1, etc.
• Engine fallback: Auto-switches to Python engine when C engine fails, skipping corrupted rows

Usage Examples

Example 1: Analyzing E-commerce Sales Data

User: Help me analyze this sales data, want to know which products sell well and which customers are high-value

[Upload orders.csv]

Skill automatically:

1. Recognizes as "Retail Economy × Transaction/Event Data"
2. Selects RFM Customer Value Analysis + ABC Product Classification framework
3. Generates and executes analysis scripts
4. Outputs customer segmentation distribution, product sales ranking, RFM heatmap, and HTML report

Example 2: Analyzing User Behavior Logs

User: This is our App's user behavior log, want to see the user conversion funnel

[Upload events.csv]

Skill automatically:

1. Recognizes as "Attention/Conversion Economy × Event Sequence Data"
2. Selects Funnel Analysis + Session Sequence Mining framework
3. Outputs conversion rates at each step, churn node analysis, user path Sankey diagram

Example 3: Analyzing Meteorological Observation Data

User: Help me analyze this weather station observation record, understand temperature and precipitation patterns

[Upload weather.csv]

Skill automatically:

1. Recognizes as "Earth Science × Time Series/Trajectory Data × Instrument Measurement"
2. Selects Time Series Decomposition + Seasonality Analysis + Extreme Value Statistics framework
3. Outputs trend charts, seasonal decomposition charts, outlier reports
