Overview of this book

Data analysis has become a necessary skill in a variety of domains where knowing how to work with data and extract insights can generate significant value. Hands-On Data Analysis with Pandas will show you how to analyze your data, get started with machine learning, and work effectively with Python libraries often used for data science, such as pandas, NumPy, matplotlib, seaborn, and scikit-learn. Using real-world datasets, you will learn how to use the powerful pandas library to perform data wrangling to reshape, clean, and aggregate your data. Then, you will be able to conduct exploratory data analysis by calculating summary statistics and visualizing the data to find patterns. In the concluding chapters, you will explore some applications of anomaly detection, regression, clustering, and classification using scikit-learn to make predictions based on past data. By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to use pandas to ensure the veracity of your data, visualize it for effective decision-making, and reliably reproduce analyses across multiple datasets.

Exploring the data

We don't have labeled data yet, but we can still examine the data to see whether there is something that stands out. This data is different from the data in Chapter 8, Rule-Based Anomaly Detection. The hackers are smarter in this simulation—they don't always try as many users or stick with the same IP address every time. Let's see whether we can come up with some features that will help with anomaly detection by performing some EDA in the 1-EDA_unlabeled_data.ipynb notebook.

As usual, we begin with our imports. These will be the same for all notebooks, so it will be reproduced in this section only:

>>> %matplotlib inline
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import seaborn as sns

Next, we read in the 2018 logs from the logs table in the SQLite database...
