Data Representations, Transformations, and Statistics for Visual Reasoning (Synthesis Lectures on Visualization)

by Ross Maciejewski

Analytical reasoning techniques are methods by which users explore their data to obtain insight and knowledge that can directly support situational awareness and decision making. Recently, the analytical reasoning process has been augmented through the use of interactive visual representations and tools which utilize cognitive, design and perceptual principles. These tools are commonly referred to as visual analytics tools, and the underlying methods and principles have roots in a variety of disciplines. This chapter provides an introduction to young researchers as an overview of common visual representations and statistical analysis methods utilized in a variety of visual analytics systems. The application and design of visualization and analytical algorithms are subject to design decisions, parameter choices, and many conflicting requirements. As such, this chapter attempts to provide an initial set of guidelines for the creation of the visual representation, including pitfalls and areas where the graphics can be enhanced through interactive exploration. Basic analytical methods are explored as a means of enhancing the visual analysis process, moving from visual analysis to visual analytics. Table of Contents: Data Types / Color Schemes / Data Preconditioning / Visual Representations and Analysis / Summary

Data Science: Best Practices mit Python

by Benjamin M. Abdel-Karim

Dieses Buch entstand aus der Motivation heraus, eines der ersten deutschsprachigen Nachschlagewerke zu entwickeln, in welchem relativ simple Quellcode-Beispiele enthalten sind, um so Lösungsansätze für die (wiederkehrenden) Programmierprobleme in der Datenanalyse weiterzugeben. Dabei ist dieses Werk nicht uneigennützig verfasst worden. Es enthält Lösungswege für immer wiederkehrende Problemstellungen die ich über meinen täglichen Umgang entwickelt habe Zweifellos gehört das Nachschlagen von Lösungsansätzen in Büchern oder im Internet zur normalen Arbeit eines Programmierers. Allerdings ist diese Suche in der Regel ein unstrukturierter und damit, zumindest teilweise, ein zeitaufwendiger Prozess.Unabhängig davon, ob Sie das Buch als Student, Mitarbeiter oder Gründer lesen, hoffe ich, dass Ihnen dieses Nachschlagewerk ein wertvoller Helfer für die ersten Anfänge sein wird. Ich gehe davon aus, dass jede Person die Grundlagen der Datenanalyse mit Hilfe moderner Programmiersprachen erlernen kann.
