Introduction: Letting Data Speak with Machine Learning

While making histograms, we got a glimpse of a technique that visualizes aggregates and not data points directly. In other words, we visualized data about our data. We’ll take this concept several steps further in this section by using a machine learning technique to demonstrate some options that can be used to categorize or cluster our data. As we will see in this section, and even while using a single technique, there are numerous options and combinations of options that can be explored. This is where the value of interactive dashboards comes into play. It would be very tedious if users were to explore every single option by manually creating a chart for it.
