Background

In a quality statistical data analysis the initial step has to be exploratory. Exploratory data analysis begins with the univariate exploratory analyis - examining the variable one at a time. Next comes bivariate analysis followed by multivariate analyis. SmartEDA package helps in getting the complete exploratory data analysis just by running the function instead of writing lengthy r code.

Functionalities of SmartEDA

The SmartEDA R package has four unique functionalities as

  • Descriptive statistics
  • Data visualization
  • Custom table
  • HTML EDA report

SmartEDA

Comparison with other packages

SmartEDA package with other similar packages available in CRAN for exploratory data analysis viz. dlookr, DataExplorer, Hmisc, exploreR, RtutoR and summarytools. The metric for evaluation is the availability of various desired features for performing an Exploratory data analysis

Journal of Open Source Software Article

An article describing SmartEDA package for exploratory data analysis approach has been published in arxiv and Journal of Open Source Software JOSS. Please cite the paper if you use SmartEDA in your work!

Two independent plots side by side for the same variable

To plot graph from same variable when Target=NULL vs. when Target = categorical variable (binary or multi-class variable)

target = "gear"
categorical_features <- c("vs", "am", "carb")
numeircal_features <- c("mpg", "cyl", "disp", "hp", "drat", "wt", "qsec")

num_1 <- ExpTwoPlots(mtcars, 
                     plot_type = "numeric",
                     iv_variables = numeircal_features,
                     target = "gear",
                     lp_arg_list = list(alpha=0.5, color = "red", fill= "white", binwidth=1),
                     lp_geom_type = 'histogram',
                     rp_arg_list = list(alpha=0.5, fill = c("red", "orange", "pink"),  binwidth=1),
                     rp_geom_type = 'histogram',
                     fname = "dub2.pdf",
                     page = c(2,1),
                     theme = "Default")

Univariate Outlier analysis

In statistics, an outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations. An outlier may be due to variability in the measurement or it may indicate experimental error; the latter are sometimes excluded from the data set.An outlier can cause serious problems in statistical analyses.

Identifying outliers: There are several methods we can use to identify outliers. In ExpOutliers used two methods (1) Boxplot and (2) Standard Deviation

SmartEDA

##Identifying outliers mehtod - Boxplot
ExpOutliers(Carseats, varlist = c("Sales","CompPrice","Income"), method = "boxplot",  capping = c(0.1, 0.9))

##Identifying outliers mehtod - 3 Standard Deviation
ExpOutliers(Carseats, varlist = c("Sales","CompPrice","Income"), method = "3xStDev",  capping = c(0.1, 0.9))

##Identifying outliers mehtod - 2 Standard Deviation
ExpOutliers(Carseats, varlist = c("Sales","CompPrice","Income"), method = "2xStDev",  capping = c(0.1, 0.9))


##Create outlier flag (1,0) if there are any outliers 
ExpOutliers(Carseats, varlist = c("Sales","CompPrice","Income"), method = "3xStDev",  capping = c(0.1, 0.9), outflag = TRUE)

##Impute outlier value by mean or median valie
ExpOutliers(Carseats, varlist = c("Sales","CompPrice","Income"), method = "3xStDev", treatment = "mean", capping = c(0.1, 0.9), outflag = TRUE)

Exploratory analysis - Custom tables, summary statistics

Descriptive summary on all input variables for each level/combination of group variable. Also while running the analysis we can filter row/cases of the data.

	ExpCustomStat(Carseats,Cvar=c("US","Urban","ShelveLoc"),gpby=FALSE)
	ExpCustomStat(Carseats,Cvar=c("US","Urban"),gpby=TRUE,filt=NULL)
	ExpCustomStat(Carseats,Cvar=c("US","Urban","ShelveLoc"),gpby=TRUE,filt=NULL)
	ExpCustomStat(Carseats,Cvar=c("US","Urban"),gpby=TRUE,filt="Population>150")
