 Thesis Abstract

 This thesis outlines the creation of StatHunt, an interactive web-application aimed to help researchers identify correct statistical procedures for their experiments. To explain the design rationale behind StatHunt, the underlying problems it is try- ing to solve are presented. For the design of StatHunt, State Transition Networks are used to model conversation flow of a developed chatbot. The concrete imple- mentation of this conversational flow in Botpress is then detailed. For experiment visualisation the usage of Blocky is explained and implementation information is provided. As a privacy mechanism for researchers to share their data, differential privacy is introduced. Its use in obfuscating data in StatHunt is explained.
