Doris Lee - Always-on Dataframe Visualizations with Lux

Visualizations help data scientists discover trends, patterns, identify outliers, and derive insights from their data. However, existing visualization libraries in Python require users to write a substantial amount of code for plotting even a single visualization, often hindering the flow of data exploration. In this talk, you will learn about Lux, a lightweight visualization tool on top of pandas dataframes. Lux recommends visualizations for free to users as they explore their data within a Jupyter notebook without the need to write additional code. Lux is used by data scientists across a variety of industries and sectors and has nearly 66k total downloads and over 3.3k stars on GitHub. For more information, see: https://github.com/lux-org/lux.
