Comparing Partitions With Spie Charts

چکیده

Statistical graphics are important both in exploratory data analysis and in presenting results to non-professionals. Pie charts are often used to show a partition, but are hard to compare with each other. A spie chart is a combination of two pie charts: one sets the angles of the slices, and the other sets their areas, by manipulating the radius of each slice individually. This enables an easy comparison of the partitions represented by the two charts. It is useful for presenting change (e.g. a new division of a budget compared to a previous devision) or risk (e.g. effected groups relative to their fraction in the population).

Data on the distribution of cancer incidence and death across age and sex groups visualized using multilevel spie charts.

Cancer incidence and death statistics are typically recorded for multiple age and sex brackets, leading to large data tables which are difficult to digest. Effective visualizations of this data would allow practitioners, policy makers, and the general public to comprehend the data more readily and act on it appropriately. We introduce multilevel spie charts to create a combined visualization of...

CFD analysis of natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity with partitions utilizing Al2O3 nanofluid

In the present study, natural convective heat transfer in a partitioned square cavity utilizing nanofluids is studied. The vertical left and right walls are considered as the hot and cold walls, respectively and the partitions assumed to be adiabatic. The nanofluid used in this study is Al2O3 with the volume fraction of 20%. It is assumed that nanofluid is a single phase f...

Tsallis Entropy and Conditional Tsallis Entropy of Fuzzy Partitions

The purpose of this study is to define the concepts of Tsallis entropy and conditional Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions and to obtain some results concerning this kind entropy. We show that the Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions has the subadditivity and concavity properties. We study this information measure under the refinement and zero mode subset relations. We check the chain rules for ...

Comparing Partitions by Means of Fuzzy Data Mining Tools

Rand index is one of the most popular measures for comparing two partitions over a set of objects. Several approaches have extended this measure for those cases involving fuzzy partitions. In previous works, we developed a methodology for correspondence analysis between partitions in terms of data mining tools. In this paper we discuss how, without any additional cost, it can be applied as an a...

Comparing Clusterings – an information based distance

This paper proposes an information theoretic criterion for comparing two partitions, or clusterings, of the same data set. The criterion, called variation of information (VI), measures the amount of information lost and gained in changing from clustering C to clustering C′. The basic properties of VI are presented and discussed. We focus on two kinds of properties: (1) those that help one build...
