Five Things I Wish I Knew the First Day I Used TableauRyan Sleeper
This document outlines five things the author wishes they knew when first starting to use Tableau. It discusses: 1) the different Tableau license types and their uses, 2) the importance of properly shaping data before analyzing in Tableau, 3) the difference between dimensions and measures, 4) the difference between discrete and continuous fields, and 5) introduces some corporate-focused chart types like sparklines, small multiples, and bullet graphs. The document is presented by Ryan Sleeper from Evolytics to help others learn from his experience using Tableau.
The document provides tips and best practices for dashboard design. It discusses key aspects of effective dashboards such as using visual elements, focusing on key performance indicators (KPIs), providing context for KPIs, and fitting content on a single screen. The document also provides 10 tips for dashboard design and visualization including separating different metric types, selecting the most meaningful metrics, using comparisons to provide context, and choosing the right visualization for the data. Finally, it discusses criteria for selecting dashboard tools and compares features of tools from Business Objects, Cognos, MicroStrategy, and Tableau.

To correctly portray complex data a developer must utilize modern data visualization techniques. This session describes how to create data graphics (charts) and dashboards that are concise, attractive and usable. Learn the practical design principles that apply to every data graphic you produce. Without this firsthand knowledge one can innocently construct visuals that erroneously represent data and mislead viewers. I cover Important Visual Perception Patterns to Know and the Top Common Chart Design Errors. I will also share the knowledge framework for creating effective graphical data dashboards. Apply the best design pattern every time using the "3 threes" — a convenient memory hook representing the distinctions between systems that “monitor, measure, and manage” performance metrics for “operations, tactical or strategic” purposes. Become a hero of interactive data visualization. Copious examples included.

Storytelling with Data - Approach | SkillsAmit Kapoor
The ever increasing computational capacity has enabled us to acquire, process and analyze larger data-sets and information. However, the human memory and attention required to use this data is more limited and has remained relatively constant. Data visualization can enable us to compress data and encode it visually in ways that allows us to aid perceptual and cognitive understanding.
However, data visualisation alone is not enough and often we need to try to tell stories through data. Storytelling with data can enable us to move from analysis to synthesis, from numbers to visuals, and from an argument to a story. Operating at this intersection of data, visual and story can help persuade not only through logos (logic) but also through pathos (empathy) and ethos (credibility). In trying to tell compelling data stories, we can empower our selves to engage, communicate and persuade a large and diverse audience.
In this talk, I discuss ‘why’ stories work and what we can learn about the art of storytelling from other mediums like oral storytelling, written stories, pictures, comics and movies. I will summarise basic principles that can help us in our crafting journey, as we take the data through the layers of abstraction. The focus would be on unpacking the seven dimensions of creating an engaging data story - Abstraction (data patterns), Representation (visual encoding), Framing & Transition (perspective, focus), Messaging (verbal, text annotation), Flow (arrangement) and Interactivity.
Further, creating data stories is a cross disciplinary activity that requires us to operate at the intersection of a visual designer, data scientist and storyteller. It is both a science and an art. So how does one realistically learn these multitude of skills needed to get good at it. I will also discuss ideas about the possible path that practitioners could adopt to learn this craft through sustained practice.

The document discusses using both qualitative and quantitative data in design. Qualitative data provides contextual understanding through use cases and business knowledge, while quantitative data shows behavioral patterns and motivations through measurable metrics. Both types of data are needed to fully understand problems and design effective solutions. The document emphasizes that users spend most of their time in other services than the one being designed, so data from other sources may be needed. It also cautions against getting lost in analysis without applying findings to design.

However, a dashboard needs special attention to the visual design or the dashboard will fail to meet expectations. If not carefully designed, a new dashboard can leave consumers unsatisfied, frustrated, confused, and even overwhelmed.
Aaron Hursman will share his experiences designing effective dashboards that deliver on the promise of targeted, accessible, and actionable information. He will discuss examples from both his personal work and contributions of thought-leaders in this space. Through these examples, he will present practical dashboard design techniques. He will also present effective approaches to take during design and construction. Finally, Aaron will explain the challenges and obstacles that dashboard designers face today, and how to mitigate the risks that result.
WSO2Con EU 2016: Building Awesome Personal Dashboards with WSO2 Dashboard Se...WSO2
Data is meaningless without proper representation. It is most useful when understood through interaction. WSO2 Dashboard Server brings the ability to design interactive dashboards that can give you insights into data through drill-down views.
Dashboards can be shared among and customized by users to match their preferences. WSO2 Dashboard Server allows each visualization gadget to be wired in the user interface. Each gadget is limited to interacting with a well defined set of input and output data types. This makes it possible for gadgets, even in an interactive dashboard, to be loosely coupled. In this session we will explore some of the enterprise use cases that can be achieved with WSO2 Dashboard Server via its multiple interactive elements.

Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data using visual elements like charts, graphs, and maps. It provides an accessible way to see and understand trends, outliers, and patterns in data. Data visualization tools are essential for analyzing massive amounts of information and making data-driven decisions. The key benefits of data visualization are that it makes big data digestible, increases accessibility, and leads to greater efficiency and understanding. Good data visualization should communicate data clearly and effectively using graphics.

The art technique of data visualizationUday Kothari
Decision making based on information has been the single most important objective of a data warehousing or big data pursuit. No matter how big, fast and varied data are generated and processed; decision makers are only concerned with the consumption of its end result – data visualization.
Data visualization simply means representing data in a visually appealing manner to enable understanding of the context in which we operate. Data visualization is a “moment of truth” that stems from a data management initiative. It is a very linear process of decision making; and hence, critical to its success. However, data visualizations also possess the potential to put an end to such initiatives; especially, when they are either heavily biased on just the design or contain information overload.
This webinar on the art and technique of data visualization focuses sharply on the one thing that matters most to qualify for effective data visualization: the truth that comes out from data. We have facilitated the discussion with the help of our 3D framework: Design, Discovery & Data.

Tutorial for Beginners WHAT IS TABLEAU.docxjuliennehar
Tutorial for
Beginners
WHAT IS TABLEAU?
Tableau is an easy to use business intelligence software. It makes data visualization, data analytics,
and reporting as easy as dragging and dropping. Anyone can learn to use Tableau without having
a prior programming experience. Tableau can combine data from various data sources such as
spreadsheets, databases, cloud data, and even big data- all into one program to perform dynamic
analysis.
WHY TABLEAU?
Whether it’s small or large, profitable or non-profit, every organization needs to analyze their
data for optimal decision making. Analyzing data has never been easier with traditional business
intelligence tools.
Here are some of the advantages of using Tableau over the traditional BI tools:
Traditional Method Tableau
Requires specific programming skills No programming skills required
Focused on only one type of database Combines different types of database
spreadsheets, databases, cloud data, and even
big data such as Hadoop
Time consuming Time saving
Decision makers have to ask the IT people to
retrieve any information from the database
Decision makers can directly use the
dashboard to retrieve any information from
the database
Largely depends on Query languages Query is done behind the scene
Combining different types of database is
difficult
Different types of databases can be
combined easily
Not every business intelligence tool offers
interactive dashboard
Interactive dashboard is easy to build and it
makes data visualization quick and efficient
Comparatively expensive Comparatively affordable
Mostly designed for large businesses Perfect BI solution for small, medium, and
large businesses, and even for non-profits
Tableau is the next generation’s business intelligence software that brings traditional complex
analytics to the end user in a desktop environment with dynamic and faster performance.
CONNECTING TO EXCEL FILE
There are many ways to connect to data as you can see on left side.
Navigate to the bottom and click on Sample-Superstore as shown here.
This is data that came with your installation of Tableau.
Now you are in the data connection window, It looks somewhat like the following-
Notice there are three sheets in this file-
Orders, People, and Returns. You can simply drag
the table you want. If you drag more than one
table, Tableau automatically creates the join
between the tables.
CREATING CHARTS
Creating charts based on the data we connected is easy. At the bottom of the page, Click on a
sheet (sheet 1) and we will see the following screen:
Tableau automatically
separates the data into
Dimensions and Measures.
Dimensions are the
categorical fields. These
fields will create labels in the
chart. Measures are the
quantitative fields. These are
the numbers we want to
analyze. They create axis in
the chart.
After adding Order Date, Category, and Sales, the chart looks li ...
The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

Natural Language Processing (NLP), RAG and its applications .pptxfkyes25
1. In the realm of Natural Language Processing (NLP), knowledge-intensive tasks such as question answering, fact verification, and open-domain dialogue generation require the integration of vast and up-to-date information. Traditional neural models, though powerful, struggle with encoding all necessary knowledge within their parameters, leading to limitations in generalization and scalability. The paper "Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Knowledge-Intensive NLP Tasks" introduces RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), a novel framework that synergizes retrieval mechanisms with generative models, enhancing performance by dynamically incorporating external knowledge during inference.
Global Situational Awareness of A.I. and where its headedvikram sood
You can see the future first in San Francisco.
Over the past year, the talk of the town has shifted from $10 billion compute clusters to $100 billion clusters to trillion-dollar clusters. Every six months another zero is added to the boardroom plans. Behind the scenes, there’s a fierce scramble to secure every power contract still available for the rest of the decade, every voltage transformer that can possibly be procured. American big business is gearing up to pour trillions of dollars into a long-unseen mobilization of American industrial might. By the end of the decade, American electricity production will have grown tens of percent; from the shale fields of Pennsylvania to the solar farms of Nevada, hundreds of millions of GPUs will hum.
The AGI race has begun. We are building machines that can think and reason. By 2025/26, these machines will outpace college graduates. By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have superintelligence, in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be un-leashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.
Everyone is now talking about AI, but few have the faintest glimmer of what is about to hit them. Nvidia analysts still think 2024 might be close to the peak. Mainstream pundits are stuck on the wilful blindness of “it’s just predicting the next word”. They see only hype and business-as-usual; at most they entertain another internet-scale technological change.
Before long, the world will wake up. But right now, there are perhaps a few hundred people, most of them in San Francisco and the AI labs, that have situational awareness. Through whatever peculiar forces of fate, I have found myself amongst them. A few years ago, these people were derided as crazy—but they trusted the trendlines, which allowed them to correctly predict the AI advances of the past few years. Whether these people are also right about the next few years remains to be seen. But these are very smart people—the smartest people I have ever met—and they are the ones building this technology. Perhaps they will be an odd footnote in history, or perhaps they will go down in history like Szilard and Oppenheimer and Teller. If they are seeing the future even close to correctly, we are in for a wild ride.
Let me tell you what we see.
State of Artificial intelligence Report 2023kuntobimo2016
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field of science and engineering whose goal is to create intelligent machines.
We believe that AI will be a force multiplier on technological progress in our increasingly digital, data-driven world. This is because everything around us today, ranging from culture to consumer products, is a product of intelligence.
The State of AI Report is now in its sixth year. Consider this report as a compilation of the most interesting things we’ve seen with a goal of triggering an informed conversation about the state of AI and its implication for the future.
We consider the following key dimensions in our report:
Research: Technology breakthroughs and their capabilities.
Industry: Areas of commercial application for AI and its business impact.
Politics: Regulation of AI, its economic implications and the evolving geopolitics of AI.
Safety: Identifying and mitigating catastrophic risks that highly-capable future AI systems could pose to us.
Predictions: What we believe will happen in the next 12 months and a 2022 performance review to keep us honest.

• Identify patterns, trends and exceptions
• Present large data-amounts
• Choose graph type based on data
• Remove any component that is not
contributing to the message.

group what belongs together. Avoid
unnecessary confusing use of different colors.
Careful with colors
Gauges are not very effective. They have no
value to compare with. There are better and
more effective visualizations available than
gauges that also take up less space.
No more gauges
Increase the ratio between data to ink.
Highlight what’s important, leave out all
effects that are just decorative.
