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')

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)

residplot with polynomial regression
sns.residplot(data=df, x='temp',

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

DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


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)

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)

DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


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

DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


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

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])

DATA VISUALIZATION WITH SEABORN


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())
