D3.js Quick Start Guide. Create amazing, interactive visualizations in the browser with JavaScript
Matthew Huntington
D3.js is a JavaScript library that allows you to create graphs and data visualizations in the browser with HTML, SVG, and CSS. This book will take you from the basics of D3.js, so that you can create your own interactive visualizations, to creating the most common graphs that you will encounter as a developer, scientist, statistician, or data scientist.The book begins with an overview of SVG, the basis for creating two-dimensional graphics in the browser. Once the reader has a firm understanding of SVG, we will tackle the basics of how to use D3.js to connect data to our SVG elements. We will start with a scatter plot that maps run data to circles on a graph, and expand our scatter plot to make it interactive. You will see how you can easily allow the users of your graph to create, edit, and delete run data by simply dragging and clicking the graph. Next, we will explore creating a bar graph, using external data from a mock API.After that, we will explore animations and motion with a bar graph, and use various physics-based forces to create a force-directed graph. Finally, we will look at how to use GeoJSON data to create a map.
Dane grafowe w praktyce. Jak technologie grafowe ułatwiają rozwiązywanie złożonych problemów
Denise Gosnell, Matthias Broecheler
Komputer do pracy potrzebuje liczb i danych. Człowiek chętniej wysnuwa wnioski i wyodrębnia kontekst na podstawie relacji. Te dwa sposoby myślenia są tak odmienne, że komputery do niedawna z trudem wykonywały zadania związane z operowaniem na relacjach. Obecnie może się to zmienić dzięki grafom. Technologie grafowe łączą ludzkie postrzeganie świata i liniową pamięć komputerów. Ich wdrożenie na szerszą skalę będzie stanowić przełom i pozwoli osiągnąć nieznany dziś poziom. Ale najpierw trzeba nauczyć się stosować myślenie grafowe w rozwiązywaniu problemów technicznych. Dzięki tej książce opanujesz podstawy myślenia grafowego. Zapoznasz się z elementarnymi koncepcjami grafowymi: teorią grafów, schematami baz danych, systemami rozproszonymi, a także analizą danych. Dowiesz się również, jak wyglądają typowe wzorce wykorzystania danych grafowych w aplikacjach produkcyjnych. Poznasz sposób, w jaki można te wzorce stosować w praktyce. Pokazano tu, jak używać technik programowania funkcyjnego oraz systemów rozproszonych do tworzenia zapytań i analizowania danych grafowych. Opisano też podstawowe podejścia do proceduralnego przechodzenia przez dane grafowe i ich wykorzystanie za pomocą narzędzi grafowych. W książce: nowy paradygmat rozwiązywania problemów: dane grafowe wzorce wykorzystania danych grafowych przykładowa architektura aplikacji w technologiach relacyjnych i grafowych technologie grafowe a przewidywanie preferencji i zaufania użytkowników filtrowanie kolaboratywne i jego zastosowanie Grafy: przełomowa koncepcja w analizie danych!

Data Analysis with IBM SPSS Statistics. Implementing data modeling, descriptive statistics and ANOVA
James C. Mott, Ken Stehlik-Barry, James Sugrue,...
SPSS Statistics is a software package used for logical batched and non-batched statistical analysis. Analytical tools such as SPSS can readily provide even a novice user with an overwhelming amount of information and a broad range of options for analyzing patterns in the data. The journey starts with installing and configuring SPSS Statistics for first use and exploring the data to understand its potential (as well as its limitations). Use the right statistical analysis technique such as regression, classification and more, and analyze your data in the best possible manner. Work with graphs and charts to visualize your findings. With this information in hand, the discovery of patterns within the data can be undertaken. Finally, the high level objective of developing predictive models that can be applied to other situations will be addressed. By the end of this book, you will have a firm understanding of the various statistical analysis techniques offered by SPSS Statistics, and be able to master its use for data analysis with ease.
