Statistical Data Visualization With Seaborn
The Python visualization library Seaborn is based on
matplotlib and provides a high-level interface for drawing
attractive statistical graphics.
The basic steps to creating plots with Seaborn are:
1. Prepare some data
2. Control figure aesthetics
3. Plot with Seaborn
4. Further customize your plot
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
Step 1
tips = sns.load_dataset("tips")
Step 2
sns.set_style("whitegrid")
Step 3
g = sns.lmplot(x="tip",
y="total_bill",
data=tips,
aspect=2)
>>> g = (g.set_axis_labels("Tip","Total bill(USD)").
set(xlim=(0,10),ylim=(0,100)))
Step 4
>>> plt.title("title")
>>> plt.show(g)
Step 5

Data
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
Also see Lists, NumPy & Pandas
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
uniform_data = np.random.rand(10, 12)
data = pd.DataFrame({'x':np.arange(1,101),
'y':np.random.normal(0,4,100)})
Seaborn also offers built-in data sets:
>>> titanic = sns.load_dataset("titanic")
>>> iris = sns.load_dataset("iris")
2
Axis Grids
>>> g = sns.FacetGrid(titanic,
col="survived",
row="sex")
>>> g = g.map(plt.hist,"age")
>>> sns.factorplot(x="pclass",
y="survived",
hue="sex",
data=titanic)
>>> sns.lmplot(x="sepal_width",
y="sepal_length",
hue="species",
data=iris)
Scatterplot
Scatterplot with one
categorical variable
>>> sns.barplot(x="sex",
y="survived",
hue="class",
data=titanic)
Show point estimates and
confidence intervals with
scatterplot glyphs
>>> sns.countplot(x="deck",
data=titanic,
palette="Greens_d")
Show count of observations
>>> sns.pointplot(x="class",
y="survived",
hue="sex",
data=titanic,
palette={"male":"g",
"female":"m"},
markers=["^","o"],
linestyles=["-","--"])
Show point estimates and
confidence intervals as
rectangular bars
>>> sns.boxplot(x="alive",
y="age",
hue="adult_male",
data=titanic)
>>> sns.boxplot(data=iris,orient="h")
Boxplot
>>> sns.violinplot(x="age",
y="sex",
hue="survived",
data=titanic)
Violin plot
Categorical scatterplot with
non-overlapping points
Bar Chart
Count Plot
>>> sns.regplot(x="sepal_width",
y="sepal_length",
data=iris,
ax=ax)
Plot data and a linear regression
model fit
>>> plot = sns.distplot(data.y,
kde=False,
color="b")
Plot univariate distribution
Distribution Plots
Matrix Plots
>>> sns.heatmap(uniform_data,vmin=0,vmax=1)
4
Boxplot
Boxplot with wide-form data
Violinplot
(Re)set the seaborn default
Set the matplotlib parameters
Set the matplotlib parameters
Return a dict of params or use with
Context Functions
>>> sns.set_context("talk")
>>> sns.set_context("notebook",
font_scale=1.5,
Set context to "talk"
Set context to "notebook",
Scale font elements and
rc={"lines.linewidth":2.5}) override param mapping

>>> i = i.plot(sns.regplot,
sns.distplot)
>>> sns.jointplot("sepal_length", Plot bivariate distribution

Point Plot
Seaborn styles
>>> sns.axes_style("whitegrid")
Plot data and regression model fits
across a FacetGrid
>>> sns.stripplot(x="species",
y="petal_length",
data=iris)
>>> sns.swarmplot(x="species",
y="petal_length",
data=iris)
>>> f, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(5,6)) Create a figure and one subplot
{"xtick.major.size":8,
"ytick.major.size":8})
Draw a categorical plot onto a
Facetgrid
>>>

>>>
Regression Plots
Figure Aesthetics
>>> sns.set()
>>> sns.set_style("whitegrid")
>>> sns.set_style("ticks",
Subplot grid for plotting conditional
relationships
Categorical Plots
Make use of the following aliases to import the libraries:
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> import seaborn as sns
Plotting With Seaborn
sns.set_palette("husl",3)
Define the color palette
sns.color_palette("husl")
Use with with to temporarily set palette
flatui = ["#9b59b6","#3498db","#95a5a6","#e74c3c","#34495e","#2ecc71"]
sns.set_palette(flatui)
Set your own color palette
>>>
>>>
>>>
>>>
g.despine(left=True)
g.set_ylabels("Survived")
g.set_xticklabels(rotation=45)
g.set_axis_labels("Survived",
"Sex")
>>> h.set(xlim=(0,5),
ylim=(0,5),
xticks=[0,2.5,5],
yticks=[0,2.5,5])
