How Streamlit can be used for 1. Data Visualization 2. Machine Learning Apps 3. Prototyping 4. Dashboard Creation 5. Creation of Custom Tools

 

Streamlit Detailed Examples

1. Data Visualization

Streamlit makes it easy to display interactive charts using libraries like Matplotlib, Plotly, or Altair.

Example with Plotly:

import streamlit as st
import plotly.express as px
import pandas as pd

# Title
st.title("Data Visualization Example")

# Sample Data
df = pd.DataFrame({
    "Category": ["A", "B", "C", "D"],
    "Values": [100, 200, 300, 400]
})

# Plotly Chart
fig = px.bar(df, x="Category", y="Values", title="Bar Chart Example")
st.plotly_chart(fig)

2. Machine Learning Apps

Streamlit can serve machine learning models and allow users to interact with them.

Example for Sentiment Analysis:

import streamlit as st
from transformers import pipeline

# Title
st.title("Sentiment Analysis App")

# Load Model
sentiment_model = pipeline("sentiment-analysis")

# User Input
user_input = st.text_area("Enter your text:")
if st.button("Analyze"):
    result = sentiment_model(user_input)
    st.write("Sentiment:", result[0]['label'])
    st.write("Confidence:", result[0]['score'])

3. Prototyping

Quickly create interactive forms and layouts.

Example for User Registration:

import streamlit as st

st.title("User Registration Prototype")

name = st.text_input("Name")
email = st.text_input("Email")
age = st.number_input("Age", min_value=1, max_value=100)
submit = st.button("Register")

if submit:
    st.write(f"Welcome {name}, Registration Successful!")

4. Dashboard Creation

Combine multiple visualizations and widgets into a dashboard.

Example Sales Dashboard:

import streamlit as st
import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px

st.title("Sales Dashboard")

# Sidebar Filters
region = st.sidebar.selectbox("Select Region", ["North", "South", "East", "West"])
year = st.sidebar.slider("Select Year", 2020, 2023, 2022)

# Sample Data
data = {
    "Region": ["North", "South", "East", "West"] * 3,
    "Year": [2020, 2021, 2022] * 4,
    "Sales": [100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650]
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
filtered_df = df[(df["Region"] == region) & (df["Year"] == year)]

# Display Data
st.dataframe(filtered_df)

# Chart
fig = px.bar(filtered_df, x="Region", y="Sales", title="Sales Performance")
st.plotly_chart(fig)

5. Creation of Custom Tools

Create custom internal tools to perform tasks like file conversion or data filtering.

Example CSV File Converter:

import streamlit as st
import pandas as pd

st.title("CSV to Excel Converter")

uploaded_file = st.file_uploader("Upload CSV File", type=["csv"])
if uploaded_file is not None:
    df = pd.read_csv(uploaded_file)
    st.dataframe(df)
    if st.button("Convert to Excel"):
        excel_file = "converted_file.xlsx"
        df.to_excel(excel_file, index=False)
        st.download_button("Download Excel File", data=open(excel_file, "rb").read(), file_name=excel_file)

Conclusion

Streamlit is a versatile framework that enables quick development of interactive applications across various use cases such as Data Visualization, Machine Learning Apps, Prototyping, Dashboard Creation, and Custom Tools. With its easy syntax and wide range of built-in widgets, Streamlit makes it possible to turn Python scripts into fully functional web applications in minutes.

Simple Linear Regression - and Related Regression Loss Functions

Today's Topics: a. Regression Algorithms  b. Outliers - Explained in Simple Terms c. Common Regression Metrics Explained d. Overfitting and Underfitting e. How are Linear and Non Linear Regression Algorithms used in Neural Networks [Future study topics] Regression Algorithms Regression algorithms are a category of machine learning methods used to predict a continuous numerical value. Linear regression is a simple, powerful, and interpretable algorithm for this type of problem. Quick Example: These are the scores of students vs. the hours they spent studying. Looking at this dataset of student scores and their corresponding study hours, can we determine what score someone might achieve after studying for a random number of hours? Example: From the graph, we can estimate that 4 hours of daily study would result in a score near 80. It is a simple example, but for more complex tasks the underlying concept will be similar. If you understand this graph, you will understand this blog. Sim...

What problems can AI Neural Networks solve

How does AI Neural Networks solve Problems? What problems can AI Neural Networks solve? Based on effectiveness and common usage, here's the ranking from best to least suitable for neural networks (Classification Problems, Regression Problems and Optimization Problems.) But first some Math, background and related topics as how the Neural Network Learn by training (Supervised Learning and Unsupervised Learning.)  Background Note - Mathematical Precision vs. Practical AI Solutions. Math can solve all these problems with very accurate results. While Math can theoretically solve classification, regression, and optimization problems with perfect accuracy, such calculations often require impractical amounts of time—hours, days, or even years for complex real-world scenarios. In practice, we rarely need absolute precision; instead, we need actionable results quickly enough to make timely decisions. Neural networks excel at this trade-off, providing "good enough" solutions in seco...

Activation Functions in Neural Networks

  A Guide to Activation Functions in Neural Networks 🧠 Question: Without activation function can a neural network with many layers be non-linear? Answer: Provided at the end of this document. Activation functions are a crucial component of neural networks. Their primary purpose is to introduce non-linearity , which allows the network to learn the complex, winding patterns found in real-world data. Without them, a neural network, no matter how deep, would just be a simple linear model. In the diagram below the f is the activation function that receives input and send output to next layers. Commonly used activation functions. 1. Sigmoid Function 2. Tanh (Hyperbolic Tangent) 3. ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit - Like an Electronic Diode) 4. Leaky ReLU & PReLU 5. ELU (Exponential Linear Unit) 6. Softmax 7. GELU, Swish, and SiLU 1. Sigmoid Function                       The classic "S-curve," Sigmoid squashes any input value t...
