Abstract

This paper presents data preprocessing operations and visualisation techniques, carried out on the following datasets: Teaching Assistant Evaluation dataset, Statlog (Australian Credit Approval) dataset, Letter Recognition, Connectionist Bench (Sonar, Mines vs. Rocks) dataset, and Poker Hand dataset. These datasets are from the University of California Irvine (UCI) Machine Learning Repository. Further, appropriate visualisation techniques are applied to the five selected datasets depending on the properties that are supported by the visualisation techniques used. In the end, this paper offers a template for researchers, data scientists, and other data users, in selecting the right preprocessing operations and appropriate visualisation techniques when using these datasets.
