Data visualization
Part II
In the previous lecture
We learnt how to create basic plots using matplotlib library
• Scatter plot
• Histogram
• Bar plot
Python for Data Science 2
In this lecture
We will learn how to create basic plots using seaborn library:
• Scatter plot
• Histogram
• Bar plot
• Box and whiskers plot
• Pairwise plots
Python for Data Science 3
Seaborn
• Seaborn is a Python data visualization library
based on matplotlib
• It provides a high-level interface for drawing
attractive and informative statistical graphics
Python for Data Science 4
Scatter plot
Python for Data Science 5
Importing libraries
Importing necessary libraries
‘pandas’ library to work with dataframes
‘numpy’ library to do numerical operations
‘matplotlib’ library to do visualization
‘seaborn’ library to do visualization
Python for Data Science 6
Importing data into Spyder
Importing data
Removing missing values from the dataframe
Python for Data Science 7
Scatter plot
Scatter plot of Price vs Age with default arguments
o By default, fit_reg = True
o It estimates and plots a regression
model relating the x and y variables
Python for Data Science 8
Scatter plot
Scatter plot of Price vs Age without the regression fit line
Python for Data Science 9
Scatter plot
Scatter plot of Price vs Age by customizing the appearance of markers
Python for Data Science 10
Scatter plot
Scatter plot of Price vs Age by FuelType
Using hue parameter, including another variable to show the fuel
types categories with different colors
Python for Data Science 11
Scatter plot
Scatter plot of Price vs Age by FuelType
Similarly, custom the appearance of the markers
using
o transparency
o shape
o size
Python for Data Science 12
Histogram
Python for Data Science 13
Histogram
Histogram with default kernel density estimate
Python for Data Science 14
Histogram
Histogram without kernel density estimate
Python for Data Science 15
Histogram
Histogram with fixed no. of bins
Python for Data Science 16
Bar plot
Python for Data Science 17
Bar plot
Frequency distribution of fuel type of the cars
Python for Data Science 18
Grouped bar plot
Grouped bar plot of FuelType and Automatic
Python for Data Science 19
Box and whiskers plot
Python for Data Science 20
Box and whiskers plot – numerical variable
Box and whiskers plot of Price to visually interpret the
five-number summary
Python for Data Science 21
Box and whiskers plot
Box and whiskers plot for numerical vs categorical variable
Price of the cars for various fuel types
Python for Data Science 22
Grouped box and whiskers plot
Grouped box and whiskers plot of Price vs FuelType and Automatic
Python for Data Science 23
Box-whiskers plot and Histogram
Let’s plot box-whiskers plot and histogram on the same window
Split the plotting window into 2 parts
Python for Data Science 24
Box-whiskers plot and Histogram
Now, add create two plots
Python for Data Science 25
Pairwise plots
Itis used to plot pairwise relationships in a dataset
Creates scatterplots for joint relationships and histograms for
univariate distributions
Code:
sns.pairplot(cars_data, kind="scatter", hue="FuelType")
plt.show()
Python for Data Science 26
Pairwise plots
Output:
Python for Data Science 27
Summary
We have learnt how to create basic plots using seaborn library:
• Scatter plot
• Histogram
• Bar plot
o Grouped bar plot
• Box and whiskers plot
o Grouped box and whiskers plot
• Pairwise plots
