8 Dr. Snow and 1854 London cholera epidemics About half of our sensory neurons are dedicated to vision, endowing us with a remarkable pattern-recognition ability. Prof. Alfred Inselberg 8 8

9 Exploratory data analysis (EDA) Summary of the main characteristics of a data set o Identification of outliers, trends, other patterns o Often with visual methods. o A statistical model can be used or not, For seeing what the data can tell o beyond formal modeling or hypothesis testing o hypotheses new data collection and experiments 9 9

10 Exploratory data analysis (EDA) Approach to analyzing data sets o Summary of their main characteristics in Easy-to-understand, often: visual graphs without using statistical model or having formulated a hypothesis. Prepares Confirmatory Data Analysis o Checking statistical model or a hypothesis. Dynamic visualization capabilities o Identification of outliers, trends and patterns Reduction of the sensitivity of inferences to errors : o Robust statistics - low sensitivity to outliers o Nonparametric statistics no a priori assumptions 10 10

11 Approach-visual exploratory analytics Resources sensors processors Process based on interactivity 1. Graphical presentation of the data multiple diagrams 2. Visual evaluation exploiting human overview 3. Visual selection, manipulation multiple diagrams 4. Interpretation, correlation with other models, evaluation (like architecture etc.)

13 Additional knowledge People buying coffee often buy milk There is a significant difference in salaries depending on gender The memory consumption of a software grows exponentially wrt. number of requests in queue. The population follows a N(100, 15) disribution BME students fall into 3 main different groups (according to their grades) 13 13

14 Cleaning Data analysis Modell Data Data analysis Exploratory Confirmatory Additional knowledge 14 14

15 Data analysis Exploratory analysis Goal: formulate hypotheses Know the data/domain Highly ad-hoc Mainly descriptive statistics+data mining+visualization Confirmatory analízis Goal: test hypotheses Validate Mainly statistical tests + statistical inference 15 15

16 Data analysis E.g. distribution analysis Exploratory Hypothesis: variable x follows normal distribution Confirmatory Variable x follows N(12, 4) distribution 16 16

17 Data analysis E.g., linear regression Exploratory Hypothesis: variables x and y are linearly correlated Confirmatory Y = 3.2 x 1.2 R 2 =

18 Cleaning Data analysis Modell Data Data analysis Exploratory Confirmatory Additional knowledge 18 18

19 Data cleaning Reasons for inconsistencies o Input/measurement errors, wrong join, partial observation, fraud, Outliers o =/= gross error o Can be an analysis goal to identify o Hard to detect in case of multiple dimensions o Visualization with (low) dimensions number may help 19 19

21 Example: Robust and non-paramteric measures Sample set o 1000 points o U(1, 5) unif. Distribution mean = median = 3 ms 3ms ± 2 ms 1 sample of 20 sec Response time New median: sort(resp. times)[501] = 3.02 ms Resp. t. median Resp. t. mean Robust Non-robust New mean: (2 * 10^4 + 3 * 10^3 )/ 1001 = 25 ms! 21 21

22 Parallel coordinates: multi(many)factor analysis You can do much, much more o Redundancy reduction o Correlation analysis o Clustering o Data mining o Approximation o Optimization Inselberg, A: Parallel Coordinates, Visual Multidimensional Geometry and Its Applications, Springer

26 Reviewing the Calculations Avoiding erroneous assumptions Intuition! Overly primitive model Single outlier! Lack of robustness For all cases: Means: M x = 9 M y ~7.5 Variance: σ x = 11 σ y ~4.12 Correlation: C x, y ~0.816 Regression: y ~ x

33 Numerical Variables Continuous o Measured in a specific range with a specific precision o e.g. temperature of a the server room Numerical Variable Categorical Integer Continuous Discrete o Counted finite number of values in a specific range o e.g. number of disks 33 33

34 Categorical variables Ordered (ordinal) o Excelent, good, fair, poor o Value range is ordered o Fully ordered? Un-ordered (nominal) o Types o City names Numerical Ordered Variables Categorical Un-ordered 34 34

41 Simple Statistical Description How far are the values scattered? 41 41

42 Simple Statistical Description Are there outliers? 42 42

43 Box plots Input variable: Test results Question: What results were born approximately? An art of abstraction: just take some intervals, the exact values are not that important 43 43

44 Description of (Continuous) Observations Description of the middle 1. Average arithmetic mean 2. Median the element separating the upper half from the lower half (ordered data sets!) 3.

45 Describing (cont.) Observations If the elements of a data set are ordered, the middle element is the median of the data set. In the case if there is no middle element (an even number of elements), the median is the average of the two middle elements. The mode is the most frequent element (the most frequent elements) of the data set. If there is no unique most frequent element, the data set has multiple Modes
