How old do they look? • Do you think they look smart? • How do we perceive age, gender, and attractiveness? Data Analysis!
Preprocessing the Data Problematic data Aggregate results from multiple people into a single description Map from multiple-choice responses to one numerical value
Exploring the Data Initial scatterplot matrix of the face data
Exploring the Data Initial histogram of face age data
Exploring the Data Histogram of cleaned face age data
Age, Attractiveness, and Gender Scatterplot of attractiveness versus age, colored by gender
Age, Attractiveness, and Gender Smoothed scatterplots for attractiveness versus age, colored by gender
Age, Attractiveness, and Gender Three iterations of plotting attractiveness versus age versus gender:(a) ages averaged within buckets per age year, (b) 95% confidence interval for each bucket, plus loess curves, and (c) larger buckets where the data is sparser.
Age, Attractiveness, and Gender Pearson correlation matrix
Clustering Attractiveness versus age, colored by cluster, 2000 points.

Conclusion • Our data indicates some familiar stereotypes. • Women are considered more attractive than men • Age have a stronger attractiveness effect for women than men • Also some potential surprises. • Babies are most attractive • Conservatives look more intelligent • The point of this instance is not to come to any particular conclusion. • Instead, we want to show some examples of the rich set of significant patterns contained in large, messy data set of human judgments.
A Sample Image A sample image from CrimeWatch shows areas of the theft, narcotics, robbery, and other crimes.
A Sample Image The same sample image from CrimeWatch with programmatically recognized icons outlined.
A Sample Image The same sample image with the reddish parts made white to show the red boxing glove icon more clearly.
Geolocation A map of downtown Oakland showing three reference points for triangulation purposes.
The Spotlight Feature The type selector shows the total numbers of each report type in the selected time span
Conclusion • Crime is a serious issue for any urban resident, by visualizing the crime data can we effectively protect the citizens. • The project has been a productive success, resulting in what we believe is a data service maximally useful to local residents. • City and government information is being moved onto the Internet to match the expectations of a connected, wired citizenry. • For more information about Crimespotting: • http://oakland.crimespotting.org/
Redistricting and Partisan Bias • Redistricting • Redistricting is the process of drawing United States electoral district boundaries, often in response to population changes determined by the results of the decennial census. • Partisan Bias • Partisan bias is a measure of how much the electoral system favors the Democrats or Republicans, after accounting for their vote share.

Age and Voting Sure, young people voted heavily for Mr.Obama, but they voted heavily for John Kerry. ----Mark Penn, Political Consultant Was he right?

Conclusion • Political data is increasingly accessible and is increasingly being plotted and shared in the media and on the web. • At the research level, articles in political science journals are starting to make use of graphical techniques for discovery and presentation of results. • Statistical visualization to become more important and more widespread in political analysis.
Data Finds Data • An example • Corruption at the Roulette Wheel • Past Posting
Data Finds Data • What can data finds data system do for us? • Guest Convenience • Customer service On the way to “data finds data”:
Data Finds Data • What can data finds data system do for us? • Improved Child Safety • Cross-compartment Exploitation
Data Finds Data • What should we solve first? • All examples benefit from just in-time discovery. • However, we should solve the “enterprise discoverability” problem. • Federated search • Do not have the indexes necessary to enable the efficient location of a record. • Requires recursive processing. • Federated search cannot support the “data finds data” mission, because it has no ability to deliver on enterprise discoverability at scale. • Directories are necessary!
Conclusion • Determine how new observations relate to what is known. • Differentiate one organization from another. • Likely become another building block from which next generations of advanced analytics will benefit.
Exploring Your Life in Data • Web: • About sharing, broadcasting and distributing. • About tracking, monitoring, analyzing his\her habits and behaviors. • Tools: • PEIR & YFD • Difference: • PEIR runs in the background and automatically upload data. • YFD requires that users actively enter data.
Some Examples • DietSense • Family Dynamics • Walkability • Thanks to built-in sensors. • All bring people involved in their communities with just their mobile phones.
Visualization • Traces are colored based on impact and exposure values. • A different mapping scheme that make all trips on the map mono-color, using circles to encode impact and exposure. • All traces are colored white, and the model values are visually represented with circles that varies in size at the end of each trip. • Greater values are displayed as circles larger in area while lesser values are smaller in area.
Visualization • We grayscaled map tiles and inverted the color filters so that map items that were originally lightly colored turned dark and vice versa. • To be more specific, the terrain was originally lightly colored, so now it is dark gray, and roads that were originally dark are now light gray. • This darkened map lets lightly colored traces stand out, and because the map is grayscale, there is less clashing.
Visualization • PEIR provides histograms to show distributions of impact and exposure for selected trips.
