Data Exploration

Data exploration is the phase following data acquisition where collected data is cleaned and analyzed using visualization and statistical techniques to understand its characteristics. Data visualization plays a crucial role in representing data graphically, making it easier to interpret trends and relationships. Various visualization methods include charts, graphs, maps, and temporal displays, with popular software options like MS Excel and Tableau.

Data Exploration:

After data acquisition, the data needs to be cleaned by removing redundant


or unrequired data and handling missing values and then its characteristics
are to be thoroughly understood. All this process is known as data
exploration. Data exploration uses various techniques, such as, data
visualization and statistical techniques to describe dataset characterization
in order to better understand the nature of the data by showing the trends
and patterns in data.

Data exploration is the phase after data acquisition wherein the collected
data is cleaned by removing redundant data and handling missing values
and then analysed using data visualisation and statistical techniques to
understand the nature of data models.

Need for Data Exploration

before it can be converted into Al

During Data acquisition, the data, which is gathered from various sources, is
often in large, unstructured volumes. Thus, it is first cleaned and handled to
bring it in a form useful for data analysis and then data exploration
techniques, such as data visualisation, are applied to gain greater insight
into the raw data

Data Exploration is the phase of exploring data with an intention of


understanding the nature of data.

Data visualisation :

Data visualisation refers to the process of representing data visually or


graphically, by using visual elements like charts, graphs, diagrams and maps
etc.

The importance of data visualisation is summarised as follows :

(i) Data visualisation is a powerful way to represent a bulk of data in a


collective Visual form.
(ii) It is a way to explore data with presentable results.
(iii) Data visualisation makes it easy to interpret and comprehend data.
(iv) It becomes easier to see the trends, relationships and trends of data
through data visualisation.
(v) Data visualisation is useful for combining categories of data and
thereby reducing data for processing.
(vi) Data visualisation helps in defining strategy for using data for Al
model to be developed at later stage.

Ways to visualise data :

1) Charts :

These uses pattern or theme to visualise data

Eg – Bubble chart

2) Graphs

These contain X and Y axis on which numerical data is shown

Example: line graph, pie graph , bar graph .

3 )Maps :

These are use for visualising geospatial, geo graphic data

Eg heat map

3) Temporal :

These display data over a period of time

Eg- timeline

Question and answer

1. What is Data exploration in Al project cycle ?

Ans. The phase of data exploration follows the Data acquisition phase and in
this phase the data is explored and analysed using various techniques to
describe dataset characterizations, to better understand the nature of the
data by showing the trends and patterns in data.

3. Name some Data visualisation software. Ans. Some commonly used data
visualisation software are: MS Excel, Google Charts, Tableau, Data wrapper,
Infogram, IBM Watson etc

4. What is the need of data visualisation?

Ans. Data visualisation is important and useful for understanding and


comprehending the information stored in data. It becomes easier to see the
trends, relationships and trends of data through data visualisation. Data
visualisation is also useful for combining categories of data and thereby
reducing data for processing.
5. Mention some popular Data visualisation techniques.

Ans.

1) Bubble chart

2) line chart

3) bar graph

4) pie chart

5) histogram
