Interpret Groups

Synopsis​

This operator allows you to see how numeric columns differ for a given category.

Description​

Given a categorical column, this operator calculates the normalized average values for all numerical columns grouped by the selected column. This value shows how much a sub-group differentiates from the total average. The values can be read as percentage. A value greater than zero indicates that the values in this group are on average larger, while a value smaller than zero indicates smaller values. Missing values are ignored for calculating the average values. But if a sub-group only contains missing values the returned value is also missing. The same is true if the groups contains infinite values, then the average also can't be calculated.

Input​

Output​

example set​

The calculated average values for each category.

Parameters​

The category column you want to differentiate by.
