Data Science Utils: Frequently Used Methods for Data Science

Data Science Utils extends the Scikit-Learn API and Matplotlib API to provide simple methods that simplify task and visualization over data.

Code Examples and Documentation

Let's see some code examples and outputs.

You can read the full documentation with all the code examples from: https://datascienceutils.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

In the documentation you can find more methods and more examples.

The API of the package is build to work with Scikit-Learn API and Matplotlib API. Here are some of capabilities of this package:

Metrics

Plot Confusion Matrix

Computes and plot confusion matrix, False Positive Rate, False Negative Rate, Accuracy and F1 score of a classification.

Plot Metric Growth per Labeled Instances

Receives a train and test sets, and plots given metric change in increasing amount of trained instances.

Visualize Accuracy Grouped by Probability

Receives test true labels and classifier probabilities predictions, divide and classify the results and finally plots a stacked bar chart with the results.

Preprocess

Get Correlated Features

Calculate which features correlated above a threshold and extract a data frame with the correlations and correlation to the target feature.

level_0	level_1	level_0_level_1_corr	level_0_target_corr	level_1_target_corr
income_category_Low	income_category_Medium	-0.9999999999999999	-0.1182165609358650	0.11821656093586504
term_ 36 months	term_ 60 months	-1.0	-0.1182165609358650	0.11821656093586504
interest_payments_High	interest_payments_Low	-1.0	-0.1182165609358650	0.11821656093586504

Strings

Append Tags to Frame

Extracts tags from a given field and append them as dataframe.

A dataset that looks like this:

x_train:

article_name	article_tags
1	ds,ml,dl
2	ds,ml

x_test:

article_name	article_tags
3	ds,ml,py

Using this code:

    import pandas

    from ds_utils.strings import append_tags_to_frame


    x_train = pandas.DataFrame([{"article_name": "1", "article_tags": "ds,ml,dl"},
                                {"article_name": "2", "article_tags": "ds,ml"}])
    x_test = pandas.DataFrame([{"article_name": "3", "article_tags": "ds,ml,py"}])

    x_train_with_tags, x_test_with_tags = append_tags_to_frame(x_train, x_test, "article_tags", "tag_")

will be parsed into this:

x_train_with_tags:

article_name	tag_ds	tag_ml	tag_dl
1	1	1	1
2	1	1	0

x_test_with_tags:

article_name	tag_ds	tag_ml	tag_dl
3	1	1	0

Extract Significant Terms from Subset

Returns interesting or unusual occurrences of terms in a subset. Based on the elasticsearch significant_text aggregation.

import pandas

from ds_utils.strings import extract_significant_terms_from_subset

corpus = ['This is the first document.', 'This document is the second document.',
          'And this is the third one.', 'Is this the first document?']
data_frame = pandas.DataFrame(corpus, columns=["content"])
# Let's differentiate between the last two documents from the full corpus
subset_data_frame = data_frame[data_frame.index > 1]
terms = extract_significant_terms_from_subset(data_frame, subset_data_frame, 
                                               "content")

And the following table will be the output for terms:

third	one	and	this	the	is	first	document	second
1.0	1.0	1.0	0.67	0.67	0.67	0.5	0.25	0.0

Visualization Aids

Visualize Feature

Receives a feature and visualize its values on a graph:

• If the feature is float then the method plots the distribution plot.
• If the feature is datetime then the method plots a line plot of progression of amount thought time.
• If the feature is object, categorical, boolean or integer then the method plots count plot (histogram).

Feature Type	Plot
Float
Integer
Datetime
Category / Object
Boolean

Visualize Correlations

Compute pairwise correlation of columns, excluding NA/null values, and visualize it with heat map. Original code

Plot Correlation Dendrogram

Plot dendrogram of a correlation matrix. This consists of a chart that that shows hierarchically the variables that are most correlated by the connecting trees. The closer to the right that the connection is, the more correlated the features are.

Plot Features' Relationship

Plots the joint distribution between two features:

• If both features are either categorical, boolean or object then the method plots the shared histogram.
• If one feature is either categorical, boolean or object and the other is numeric then the method plots a boxplot chart.
• If one feature is datetime and the other is numeric or datetime then the method plots a line plot graph.
• If one feature is datetime and the other is either categorical, boolean or object the method plots a violin plot (combination of boxplot and kernel density estimate).
• If both features are numeric then the method plots scatter graph.

##XAI

Draw Tree

Receives a decision tree and return a plot graph of the tree for easy interpretation.

Generate Decision Paths

Receives a decision tree and return the underlying decision-rules (or 'decision paths') as text (valid python syntax). Original code

from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeClassifier

from ds_utils.xai import generate_decision_paths


# Create decision tree classifier object
clf = DecisionTreeClassifier(max_depth=3)

# Train model
clf.fit(x, y)
print(generate_decision_paths(clf, feature_names, target_names.tolist(), 
                              "iris_tree"))

The following text will be printed:

def iris_tree(petal width (cm), petal length (cm)):
    if petal width (cm) <= 0.8000:
        # return class setosa with probability 0.9804
        return ("setosa", 0.9804)
    else:  # if petal width (cm) > 0.8000
        if petal width (cm) <= 1.7500:
            if petal length (cm) <= 4.9500:
                # return class versicolor with probability 0.9792
                return ("versicolor", 0.9792)
            else:  # if petal length (cm) > 4.9500
                # return class virginica with probability 0.6667
                return ("virginica", 0.6667)
        else:  # if petal width (cm) > 1.7500
            if petal length (cm) <= 4.8500:
                # return class virginica with probability 0.6667
                return ("virginica", 0.6667)
            else:  # if petal length (cm) > 4.8500
                # return class virginica with probability 0.9773
                return ("virginica", 0.9773)
