A bar chart is great for showing precise quantitative comparisons encoding data with the height or length of the bar from a common baseline. -encodes data using height/length of bar and shows categorical comparisons

What is data mining

-Business analytics is often referred to as Data Mining. Data mining is a set of statistical and machine learning methods that inform decision making, often in a automated fashion. -Data Mining for broad public may mean "digging through vast stores of data in search of something interesting". Other terms used instead of Data Mining are - Predictive Analytics - Predictive Modeling - Machine Learning - Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) -Data Mining is statistics at scale and speed

Ubiquity of Data Opportunities: What contributed to the opportunities to perform data analytics?

-Computers became VERY powerful -Data networking is VERY fast -Computer storage (memory) is VERY cheap -Algorithms were developed to connect and process multiple datasets Overall, the convergence of these factors resulted in a lot of applications to business scenarios

Small Multiples

-Invented by Edward Tufte "Illustrations of postage-stamp size are indexed by category or a label, sequenced over time like the frames of a movie, or ordered by a quantitative variable not used in the single image itself."

Symbol Map (Dot Map)

-encodes data using position to show data geographically and can also use size to show quantitative data. -Dot map is Trivariate: it can use dot size to represent a numerical variable (such as sales), bubble color to represent another numerical variable (such as profit) by geographical variable (state).

Dot Plot

-encodes data using position to show the comparisons. -Dot plot is a Univariate plot for Continuous data.

TreeMap

-encodes data using size and color and is useful for hierarchical data or when there are a very large number of categories to compare. -Treemap is Multivariate.

-Numerical -Nominal -Ordinal

4V's of big data: Veracity

-Refers to quality, trustworthiness of data, lack of bias, noise, and abnormalities -Garbage in, garbage out E.g. non-response bias, label email as "spam" -Traditional statistics often collects data in a controlled way: for example, matched pairs experiment -Data mining deals with data which must be accumulated through "organic" process, and not be pre-cooked or biased, or collected in a controlled way

What are the method of business analytics

-Supervised Learning: Discover patterns in the data that relate data attributes (variables) with a target attribute. These patterns are then utilized to predict the values of the target attribute in future data instances. -Unsupervised Learning : The data have no target attribute. We want to explore the data to find some intrinsic structures or similarity in them.

What is business analytics

-The study of data through statistical and operations analysis, the formation of predictive models, application of optimization techniques and the communication of these results to customers, business partners and colleague executives -"the extensive use of data, statistical and quantitative analysis, explanatory and predictive models, and fact-based management to drive decisions and actions."

4V's of big data: Velocity

-Velocity: refers to the increasing speed at which data is created and the speed at which it can be processed, stored and analyzed. -More data means more complex relationships Business Process: Database Data (1x) Human: enterprise content and external sources (10x) -Web Logs -Email -Text Documents -Social Media Machine: Complex data (100x) -satellite imaging -sensors -videos -recording -M2M Log files -Bip Informatics

Highlight Table

-encodes a data table using color to highlight the differences in the table numbers. -Highlight Table is Multivariate. It can demonstrate a numerical variable (e.g. sales) in table cells, by columns (e.g. geographical regions), each split into rows (e.g. product categories). Color is simply used to highlight high/medium/low values in the table.

Pie Chart

-encodes data using angle, area and arc to show a part-to-whole comparison but problematic for many reasons -Pie Chart is a Univariate chart. Bar Chart can be used to display Categorical data (nominal or ordinal) or Continuous data. -this type of chart is usually not recommend

Diverging bar

-encodes data using height/length of bar diverging from a midpoint to show categorical comparisons. -Diverging Chart is a Multivariate chart, as it can show two or more variables simultaneously. For example, the "axis" variable can be time (years), or categories, top bars can represent profits, and bottom bars can represent sales.

Bullet Graph

-encodes data using length/height, position and color to show actual compared to target and performance bands. -Bullet graphs are an excellent way to show an actual value compared to a target value. It use height or length from a common baseline for the actual values and position to make the comparison to the target line. Color can be used to show performance bands so the actual value can be shown in context to the desired performance levels. -just actual to target and easier to understand -invented by stephen few

Box Plot aka Box and whisker Plot

-encodes data using position and height/length to show the distribution of the data -Box-and-Whiskers is a Univariate plot In a Box-and-Whiskers plot the "box" shows first, second, and third quartile. The length of whiskers represents how wide is the data distribution. Box plot is used only for Continuous data.

Line Chart

-encodes data using position and often shows trend over time. -It is best to keep the time series on the x-axis (not rotating) and having the oldest time period on the left going to the newest time period on the right. Technically line chart is Bivariate, as it shows numerical variable (y-axis) vs horizontal variable (time, for example).
