Packages used in Data Visualization
Matplotlib, Plotly, Seaborn, Bokeh, Pandas, Pydot
Packages used in Data Computation
Scipy, Numpy, Natural Language, Statsmodel, Spacy, Gensim
A low-level library that offers more freedom at the cost of writing more code. (Similar UI with Matlab)
Matplotlib
A data visualization package that makes interactive, publication-quality graphs
Plotly
Dependent on matplotlib, this package uses less syntax to project aesthetically modern graphs
Seaborn
Being based on grammar of graphics, this package is capable of creating web-ready plots such as HTML documents, or interactive web applications
Bokeh
A data computation package that has an open source library, allows a wide range of high-level Python commands, and is built on the Python NumPy extension.
SciPy
Fundamental computational package for scientific computing.
Numpy
Used to develop applications and services that are able to understand human languages such as speech recognition, and text-to-speech
Natural Language
Developed using Python and Cython.
Spacy
Used for memory-independent implementation for popular algorithms
Gensim
The four popular algorithms that is supported by Gensim
Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Random Projections, Latent Semantic Analysis, and Hierarchical Dirichlet Process
