Reseña del libro "Extending Power BI with Python and R - Second Edition: Perform advanced analysis using the power of analytical languages (en Inglés)"
Ingest, transform, manipulate, and visualize your data beyond Power BI's capabilities.Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in PDF format.Key FeaturesDiscover best practices for using Python and R in Power BI by implementing non-trivial codeEnrich your Power BI dashboards using external APIs and machine learning modelsCreate any visualization, as complex as you want, using Python and R scriptsBook DescriptionThe latest edition of this book delves deeper into advanced analytics, focusing on enhancing Python and R proficiency within Power BI. New chapters cover optimizing Python and R settings, utilizing Intel's Math Kernel Library (MKL) for performance boosts, and addressing integration challenges. Techniques for managing large datasets beyond laptop RAM, employing parquet data format, and advanced fuzzy matching algorithms are explored. Additionally, it discusses leveraging SQL Server External Languages to overcome traditional Python and R limitations in Power BI. It also helps in crafting sophisticated visualizations using the grammar of graphics in both R and Python.This PowerBI book will help you master data validation with regular expressions, import data from diverse sources, and apply advanced algorithms for transformation. Next, you'll learn to Safeguard personal data in Power BI with techniques like pseudonymization, anonymization, and data masking. You'll also get to grips with the key statistical features of data sets by plotting multiple visual graphs in the process of building a machine-learning model. The book will guide you to Utilize external APIs for enrichment, enhancing I/O performance, and leveraging Python and R for analysis.You'll also be able to reinforce learning with questions at the end of each chapter.What you will learnConfigure optimal integration of Python and R with Power BIPerform complex data manipulations not possible by default in Power BIBoost Power BI logging and loading large datasetsExtract insights from your data using algorithms like linear optimizationCalculate string distances and learn how to use them for probabilistic fuzzy matchingHandle outliers and missing values for multivariate and time-series dataApply Exploratory Data Analysis in Power BI with RLearn to use Grammar of Graphics in PythonWho this book is forThis book is for business analysts, business intelligence professionals, and data scientists who already use Microsoft Power BI and want to add more value to their analysis using Python and R.
