Chapter 3

The document discusses different types of categorical plots that can be created with Seaborn, including plots that show each observation, abstract representations like boxplots and violin plots, and statistical estimates like bar plots and count plots. It provides examples of using Seaborn functions like stripplot, swarmplot, boxplot, violinplot, barplot, and countplot to create these different types of categorical plots.

Categorical Data
Data which takes on a limited and xed number of values

Normally combined with numeric data

Examples include:
Geography (country, state, region)

Gender

Ethnicity

Blood type

Eye color

Bicycle Dataset
Aggregated bicycle sharing data in Washington DC

Data includes:
Rental amounts

Weather information

Calendar information

Can we predict rental amounts?

Plotting with regplot()
sns.regplot(data=df, x='temp',
y='total_rentals', marker='+')

Evaluating regression with residplot()
A residual plot is useful for evaluating the t of a model

Seaborn supports through residplot function

sns.residplot(data=df, x='temp', y='total_rentals')

INTERMEDIATE DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


Polynomial regression
Seaborn supports polynomial regression using the order
parameter

sns.regplot(data=df, x='temp',
y='total_rentals', order=2)

Categorical values
sns.regplot(data=df, x='mnth', y='total_rentals',
x_jitter=.1, order=2)

Estimators
In some cases, an x_estimator can be useful for highlighting
trends

sns.regplot(data=df, x='mnth', y='total_rentals',


x_estimator=np.mean, order=2)

INTERMEDIATE DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


Binning the data
x_bins can be used to divide the data into discrete bins

The regression line is still t against all the data

sns.regplot(data=df,x='temp',y='total_rentals',
x_bins=4)

Getting data in the right format
Seaborn's heatmap() function requires data to be in a grid
format

pandas crosstab() is frequently used to manipulate the


data

pd.crosstab(df["mnth"], df["weekday"],
values=df["total_rentals"],aggfunc='mean').round(0)

INTERMEDIATE DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


Build a heatmap
sns.heatmap(pd.crosstab(df["mnth"], df["weekday"],
values=df["total_rentals"], aggfunc='mean')
)

Customize a heatmap
sns.heatmap(df_crosstab, annot=True, fmt="d",
cmap="YlGnBu", cbar=False, linewidths=.5)

INTERMEDIATE DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


Centering a heatmap
Seaborn support centering the heatmap colors on a speci c
value

sns.heatmap(df_crosstab, annot=True, fmt="d",


cmap="YlGnBu", cbar=True,
center=df_crosstab.loc[9, 6])

Plotting a correlation matrix
Pandas corr function calculates correlations between
columns in a dataframe

The output can be converted to a heatmap with seaborn

sns.heatmap(df.corr())
