The presenter demonstrated univariate and multivariate cluster analysis, leveraging Tableau's built-in K-means clustering and integrating Python through TabPy for more advanced methods like DBSCAN, agglomerative, and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). Notable findings in the data set included the identification of two main clusters—coastal and non-coastal parishes—with coastal parishes showing four times higher expected hurricane losses, as well as insights into optimizing the number of clusters using Tableau's built-in methods and external statistical techniques. The session concluded with a discussion of visualizations such as scatter plots and radar charts, emphasizing their effectiveness in presenting clustering results and encouraging attendees to apply these techniques to their own data for actionable insights.<html><head></head><body><p>• Cluster analysis in Tableau can effectively simplify complex data, as shown in a FEMA data set by grouping Louisiana's 64 parishes into coastal and non-coastal clusters, with coastal areas experiencing significantly higher economic losses from hurricanes.</p><p>• Integrating Tableau with Python via TabPy allows for the use of advanced clustering methods like DBSCAN and GMM, which provide robust results and highlight the importance of testing multiple techniques for consistency.</p><p>• Visualizations such as scatter plots and radar charts complement maps by offering clear, non-geographic representations of clustering results, making data insights more accessible and actionable for diverse audiences.</p></body></html>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1RxLLEWKfFX0b9bpAoLIiCAcWhF_8t_8UZ8HDIdBLXMU/viewform?usp=pp_url&entry.996201328=1768360188568001MXQZ<a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1RxLLEWKfFX0b9bpAoLIiCAcWhF_8t_8UZ8HDIdBLXMU/viewform?usp=pp_url&entry.996201328=1768360188568001MXQZ">Report a Concern</a>Tableau DesktopData AnalystTableauCommunityData ModelingBreakoutIntermediateIn-PersonBreakoutReserved seat released 5 min prior to session if not present.Implement univariate and multivariate cluster analysis using Tableau and/or TabPy, Tableau’s external connection to Python.Visualize and interpret clusters in a spatial context using maps, radar charts, and scatterplots.Reduce data for easier interpretation and meaningful conclusions.Community Speaker2:00 p.m. Tuesday, May 05Tuesday, May 05Thursday, May 071:00 p.m. Thursday, May 07Discover how Tableau and Python work together to uncover meaningful clusters in high-dimensional data — transforming complex risk patterns into clear, actionable insight.Session Type: Breakout
