Description du cours

Maintenant que vous maîtrisez les bases de pandas, ce cours vous permet d’appliquer ces connaissances pour répondre à des questions concrètes à partir d’un jeu de données réel. Vous explorerez le jeu de données du Stanford Open Policing Project et analyserez l’impact du genre sur le comportement policier. Au fil du cours, vous vous exercerez à nettoyer des données imparfaites, créer des visualisations, combiner et remodeler des jeux de données, et manipuler des séries temporelles. Analyzing Police Activity with pandas vous offrira une expérience précieuse d’analyse de bout en bout d’un jeu de données, afin de vous préparer à une carrière en data science.

Prérequis

Joining Data with pandas

1

Preparing the data for analysis

Before beginning your analysis, it is critical that you first examine and clean the dataset, to make working with it a more efficient process. In this chapter, you will practice fixing data types, handling missing values, and dropping columns and rows while learning about the Stanford Open Policing Project dataset.

Examining traffic violations

Comparing violations by gender

Does gender affect who gets a ticket for speeding?

Filtering by multiple conditions

Comparing speeding outcomes by gender

Visual exploratory data analysis

Are you more likely to get arrested at a certain time of day? Are drug-related stops on the rise? In this chapter, you will answer these and other questions by analyzing the dataset visually, since plots can help you to understand trends in a way that examining the raw data cannot.

Does time of day affect arrest rate?

Calculating the hourly arrest rate

Plotting the hourly arrest rate

Are drug-related stops on the rise?

Plotting drug-related stops

Comparing drug and search rates

What violations are caught in each district?

Tallying violations by district

Plotting violations by district

How long might you be stopped for a violation?

Converting stop durations to numbers

Plotting stop length

Exploring the weather dataset

Plotting the temperature

Plotting the temperature difference

Categorizing the weather

Counting bad weather conditions

Rating the weather conditions

Changing the data type to category

Merging datasets

Preparing the DataFrames

Merging the DataFrames

Does weather affect the arrest rate?

Comparing arrest rates by weather rating

Selecting from a multi-indexed Series

Reshaping the arrest rate data
