因编译更新问题，本文将稍作更改，以便能够顺利运行。

1 Dendrogram

树状图根据给定的距离度量将相似的点组合在一起，并根据点的相似性将它们组织成树状的链接。

新建文件Dendrogram.py:

# Import Setup
from Setup import pd
from Setup import plt
import scipy.cluster.hierarchy as shc

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/USArrests.csv')

# Plot
plt.figure(figsize=(16, 10), dpi= 80)  
plt.title("USArrests Dendograms", fontsize=22)  
dend = shc.dendrogram(shc.linkage(df[['Murder', 'Assault', 'UrbanPop', 'Rape']], method='ward'), labels=df.State.values, color_threshold=100)  
plt.xticks(fontsize=12)
plt.show()

运行结果为：

2 Cluster Plot

聚类图可用于划分属于同一聚类的点。下面是一个代表性示例，根据 USArrests 数据集将美国各州分为 5 个组。此聚类图使用“谋杀”和“袭击”列作为 X 轴和 Y 轴。或者，您可以使用第一个到主分量作为 x 轴和 Y 轴。

新建文件Cluster Plot.py:

# Import Setup
from Setup import pd
from Setup import plt
import numpy as np
from sklearn.cluster import AgglomerativeClustering
from scipy.spatial import ConvexHull

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/USArrests.csv')

# Agglomerative Clustering
cluster = AgglomerativeClustering(n_clusters=5, affinity='euclidean', linkage='ward')  
cluster.fit_predict(df[['Murder', 'Assault', 'UrbanPop', 'Rape']])  

# Plot
plt.figure(figsize=(14, 10), dpi= 80)  
plt.scatter(df.iloc[:,0], df.iloc[:,1], c=cluster.labels_, cmap='tab10')  

# Encircle
def encircle(x,y, ax=None, **kw):
    if not ax: ax=plt.gca()
    p = np.c_[x,y]
    hull = ConvexHull(p)
    poly = plt.Polygon(p[hull.vertices,:], **kw)
    ax.add_patch(poly)

# Draw polygon surrounding vertices    
encircle(df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 0, 'Murder'], df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 0, 'Assault'], ec="k", fc="gold", alpha=0.2, linewidth=0)
encircle(df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 1, 'Murder'], df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 1, 'Assault'], ec="k", fc="tab:blue", alpha=0.2, linewidth=0)
encircle(df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 2, 'Murder'], df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 2, 'Assault'], ec="k", fc="tab:red", alpha=0.2, linewidth=0)
encircle(df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 3, 'Murder'], df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 3, 'Assault'], ec="k", fc="tab:green", alpha=0.2, linewidth=0)
encircle(df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 4, 'Murder'], df.loc[cluster.labels_ == 4, 'Assault'], ec="k", fc="tab:orange", alpha=0.2, linewidth=0)

# Decorations
plt.xlabel('Murder'); plt.xticks(fontsize=12)
plt.ylabel('Assault'); plt.yticks(fontsize=12)
plt.title('Agglomerative Clustering of USArrests (5 Groups)', fontsize=22)
plt.show()

运行结果为：

3 Andrews Curve

Andrews 曲线有助于可视化是否存在基于给定分组的数值特征的固有分组。如果特征（数据集中的列）不能帮助区分组 （cyl），则线将无法很好地隔离，如下所示。

新建文件Andrews Curve.py:

# Import Setup
from Setup import pd
from Setup import plt
from pandas.plotting import andrews_curves

# Import
df = pd.read_csv("https://github.com/selva86/datasets/raw/master/mtcars.csv")
df.drop(['cars', 'carname'], axis=1, inplace=True)

# Plot
plt.figure(figsize=(12,9), dpi= 80)
andrews_curves(df, 'cyl', colormap='Set1')

# Lighten borders
plt.gca().spines["top"].set_alpha(0)
plt.gca().spines["bottom"].set_alpha(.3)
plt.gca().spines["right"].set_alpha(0)
plt.gca().spines["left"].set_alpha(.3)

plt.title('Andrews Curves of mtcars', fontsize=22)
plt.xlim(-3,3)
plt.grid(alpha=0.3)
plt.xticks(fontsize=12)
plt.yticks(fontsize=12)
plt.show()

运行结果为：

4 Parallel Coordinates

平行坐标有助于可视化一个特征是否有助于有效地隔离群体。如果隔离已经实现,该特征在预测该群体时可能非常有用。

新建文件Parallel Coordinates.py:

# Import Setup
from Setup import pd
from Setup import plt
from pandas.plotting import parallel_coordinates

# Import Data
df_final = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/diamonds_filter.csv")

# Plot
plt.figure(figsize=(12,9), dpi= 80)
parallel_coordinates(df_final, 'cut', colormap='Dark2')

# Lighten borders
plt.gca().spines["top"].set_alpha(0)
plt.gca().spines["bottom"].set_alpha(.3)
plt.gca().spines["right"].set_alpha(0)
plt.gca().spines["left"].set_alpha(.3)

plt.title('Parallel Coordinated of Diamonds', fontsize=22)
plt.grid(alpha=0.3)
plt.xticks(fontsize=12)
plt.yticks(fontsize=12)
plt.show()

运行结果为：
