Images are often interpreted manually. In medicine, for example, a radiologist looks at a medical image, interprets it, and tra- lates the data into a clinically useful form. Manual image interpretation is, however, a time-consuming, error-prone, and subjective process that often requires specialist knowledge.

Automated methods that promise fast and - jective image interpretation have therefore stirred up much interest and have become a signi? Early work on automated interpretation used low-level operations such as edge detection and region growing to label objects in images.

Pandas comes with some plotting tools pandas. Plot the scatter matrix for males only, and for females only. Do you think that the 2 sub-populations correspond to gender? For simple statistical tests , we will use the scipy. Scipy is a vast library.

For a quick summary to the whole library, see the scipy chapter. We have seen above that the mean VIQ in the male and female populations were different. To test if this is significant, we do a 2-sample t-test with scipy. We can use a 2 sample test:. The problem with this approach is that it forgets that there are links between observations: FSIQ and PIQ are measured on the same individuals. T-tests assume Gaussian errors. We can use a Wilcoxon signed-rank test , that relaxes this assumption:.

The corresponding test in the non paired case is the Mann—Whitney U test , scipy. Conclusion : we find that the data does not support the hypothesis that males and females have different VIQ. Given two set of observations, x and y , we want to test the hypothesis that y is a linear function of x.

In other terms:. We will use the statsmodels module to:. See the statsmodels documentation. This is discussed in more detail here. To simplify, y endogenous is the value you are trying to predict, while x exogenous represents the features you are using to make the prediction. Retrieve the estimated parameters from the model above. Hint : use tab-completion to find the relevent attribute. We can see that we retrieve the same values for t-test and corresponding p-values for the effect of the type of iq than the previous t-test:.

Consider a linear model explaining a variable z the dependent variable with 2 variables x and y :. Such a model can be seen in 3D as fitting a plane to a cloud of x , y , z points. Sepal and petal size tend to be related: bigger flowers are bigger! But is there in addition a systematic effect of species? In the above iris example, we wish to test if the petal length is different between versicolor and virginica, after removing the effect of sepal width.

This can be formulated as testing the difference between the coefficient associated to versicolor and virginica in the linear model estimated above it is an Analysis of Variance, ANOVA. Seaborn combines simple statistical fits with plotting on pandas dataframes. Let us consider a data giving wages and many other personal information on individuals Berndt, ER.

We can easily have an intuition on the interactions between continuous variables using seaborn. It does that upon import. You can reset the default using:.
