Iris Data Explorer

simple data viewer on the web

Motivation (1)

  • Data in tables are good. But hard to figure out entire feature.
  • Example (iris data)
data(iris)
head(iris)
##   Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species
## 1          5.1         3.5          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 2          4.9         3.0          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 3          4.7         3.2          1.3         0.2  setosa
## 4          4.6         3.1          1.5         0.2  setosa
## 5          5.0         3.6          1.4         0.2  setosa
## 6          5.4         3.9          1.7         0.4  setosa

Motivation (2)

  • Graphical presentation makes data understand
  • You can notice Petal length and Sepal length are good features to classify iris species

plot of chunk unnamed-chunk-2

  • Limitation: graph can show at most two variables. (except category)

Iris Data Explorer

  • https://sanori.shinyapps.io/irisApp
  • Explores iris data in various ways
  • You can choose x and y axis with any variables in data
  • Explorer shows the graph of two variables and species
  • It also shows the centers of each species if you want
