Data visualization & Story Telling with DataDr Nisha Arora
Storytelling with data using the appropriate visualization is a skill that is well sought-after for data-driven decision making and it spans many industries and roles (technical/non-technical).
In this presentation, we will briefly discuss the importance of understanding the context, selecting the right visuals, key points for effectively using those for storytelling, design dos, and don’ts, etc.
Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. It is used to communicate data or information clearly and effectively to readers by leveraging the human mind's receptiveness to visual information. Effective data visualization can improve transparency and communication, answer questions, discover trends, find patterns, see data in context, support calculations, and present or tell a story. Common tools for data visualization include charts, graphs, maps, and diagrams. Specialized roles involved in data visualization include data visualization experts, data analysts, business intelligence consultants, tool-specific consultants, business analysts, and data scientists.
This document provides an overview of data visualization principles and best practices. It discusses why data visualization is useful for understanding large and small datasets by making patterns and trends easier to detect. It then outlines six principles for designing effective charts, including embracing scale, providing structure and clarity, and being honest. The document also categorizes different chart types such as line charts, bar charts, and scatterplots according to what types of data relationships they show, such as change over time, category comparisons, and distributions.
The document discusses the importance and power of visualizing data through various graphic representations. It notes that visualizing information allows us to transform it into an "information map" that is easier to explore and understand when feeling overwhelmed by data. It also states that working with data in a visual way can reveal interesting patterns and emergent insights. Additionally, the document highlights that the eye is highly sensitive to visual patterns and variations, and combining visual and conceptual languages can enhance understanding. Finally, it emphasizes that visualizing information can provide elegant solutions to problems and questions in an efficient manner.
Let the Data Talk (ALA LLAMA MAES keynote 2012)Cory Lown
This document discusses how to effectively visualize data through graphs and tables. It provides examples of when to use tables versus graphs, as well as different types of graphs and their best uses. Key advice includes highlighting the data by reducing non-data ink and enhancing important data. Organizing and prioritizing data through grouping and sequencing can also help readers understand. When there is too much data, small multiples graphs are recommended. The overall goal is to let the data speak through clear, simple visualization.

Overview
When you think of “data visualization” what is the very first thing that comes to mind? For many, it’s bar graphs, pie charts, and histograms, or maybe some combination thereof. You’re not wrong – but it’s so much more than that. The era of pie and bar charts has come and gone; these traditional visualizations alone are insufficient. Now is the time of data visualized on a rich canvas. A canvas that not only informs, but immerses you in information in much the same way that your favourite book immerses you in its narrative.
Objective
When attendees leave, that they walk away with an understanding of how development, design and data are strongly intertwined with one other. When aligned with customers needs, these aspects create a meaningful and actionable experience.
Target Audience
Designers and developers interested furthering their appetite for visualization
Five Things Audience Members Will Learn
How data visualization can lead to data exploration
Creating an experience with information
New models of data visualization
Telling a story through data
How to blend design and development through data visualization
This document describes a framework for effective data visualization design. It discusses establishing an editorial perspective by determining which questions the visualization should answer. It also covers working with data, such as understanding its properties and qualities. The document outlines various design considerations like data representation, interactivity, annotation, color, and composition. An example demonstrates applying the framework to develop a single slide summarizing staff sentiment survey results. Key stages of the framework include formulating the brief, working with data, editorial thinking, and developing the design solution.
Designing Data Visualizations to Strengthen Health SystemsAmanda Makulec
Slide deck from our hands-on workshop hosted at the 4th Global Symposium on Health Systems Research, focused on basic design tips, tricks, and best practices to improve your charts and graphs.
Look no further than our comprehensive Data Science Training program in Chandigarh. Designed to equip individuals with the skills and knowledge required to thrive in today's data-centric world, our course offers a unique blend of theoretical foundations and hands-on practical experience.
This document discusses using data science techniques to predict the winners of the Academy Awards, or Oscars. It outlines the typical data science process of framing a question, collecting and processing data, exploring the data, and communicating results. It then provides details on the tools and methods used, including Jupyter notebooks, NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, decision trees, random forests, and machine learning concepts like overfitting. Examples are given of formatting, cleaning and exploring movie data, building decision tree and random forest classifiers, calculating feature importances and model scores, and making predictions. Past Oscar winners from 1976 to 2009 are listed. The summary concludes that data science can be used to predict Oscar winners, except for the year
The document discusses demystifying data science by providing motivations, a maturity model, and an ecosystem model with practical examples and advice. It explains data science concepts like data curation, machine learning, and business integration. Examples are given of using data science for time-to-event modeling, topic modeling, and anomaly detection. The importance of communication, iteration, and understanding models as approximations is emphasized.
In information visualization, visual mirages can emerge when the visual representation of data is interpreted or appears to indicate patterns that are not truly present in the data. This can be caused by issues such as incorrect data scaling, the use of improper visualization techniques, or a lack of clear visual signals. Such mirages might be mis-lead and lead to incorrect assumptions. To avoid such blunders, it is critical to extensively evaluate visualizations and verify that they appropriately show data patterns.
Trendspotting: Helping you make sense of large information sourcesMarieke Guy
This document provides an overview of a presentation on trendspotting and making sense of large information sources. The presentation introduces qualitative data analysis and thematic coding.

Data visualization is the representation of data through use of common graphi...samarpeetnandanwar21
Data and information visualization (data viz/vis or info viz/vis)[2] is the practice of designing and creating easy-to-communicate and easy-to-understand graphic or visual representations of a large amount[3] of complex quantitative and qualitative data and information with the help of static, dynamic or interactive visual items. Typically based on data and information collected from a certain domain of expertise, these visualizations are intended for a broader audience to help them visually explore and discover, quickly understand, interpret and gain important insights into otherwise difficult-to-identify structures, relationships, correlations, local and global patterns, trends, variations, constancy, clusters, outliers and unusual groupings within data (exploratory visualization).[4][5][6] When intended for the general public (mass communication) to convey a concise version of known, specific information in a clear and engaging manner (presentational or explanatory visualization),[4] it is typically called information graphics.
Data visualization is concerned with visually presenting sets of primarily quantitative raw data in a schematic form. The visual formats used in data visualization include tables, charts and graphs (e.g. pie charts, bar charts, line charts, area charts, cone charts, pyramid charts, donut charts, histograms, spectrograms, cohort charts, waterfall charts, funnel charts, bullet graphs, etc.), diagrams, plots (e.g. scatter plots, distribution plots, box-and-whisker plots), geospatial maps (such as proportional symbol maps, choropleth maps, isopleth maps and heat maps), figures, correlation matrices, percentage gauges, etc., which sometimes can be combined in a dashboard.

BUILDING A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR SUCCESS WITH BI AND DIGITAL TRANSFORMATIONJen Stirrup
The objective of Digital Transformation is improve the quality and resilience of digital services to serve customers better, and data is a cruel part of fulfilling that ambition. As the organisation moves forward in pursuit of its strategic ambitions, it will need to remain focused on the stabilisation and improvement of existing technology and data foundations. To succeed, organisations need continuously strive to improve data, systems and processes for people using digital solutions; it is not simply digitising paper processes. The challenge of digital transformation is to work with people, but how can you build systems that serve them well to achieve and deliver more in a customer-focused way? Innovators will relish the opportunity to adopt new technology, but laggars are often waiting for proof that this will help them deliver better services or products. The challenge is that the adoption of digital solutions varies significantly from one person to the next, one team to the next and one organisation to the next. In this keynote, there will be a discussion of the industry landscape followed by takeaways that will help digital transformation in your organization.
1. Do more than get the basics right
2. Build confidence in changes through better use of data

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.
