Streamline Analyst Guide

Overview

Streamline Analyst is an end-to-end data analysis AI agent with a Streamlit web interface. Upload a dataset and describe your analysis goal in natural language — the agent handles data cleaning, EDA, feature engineering, model training, evaluation, and report generation. Provides an interactive UI for reviewing each step and adjusting parameters.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/Wilson-ZheLin/Streamline-Analyst.git
cd Streamline-Analyst
pip install -r requirements.txt
streamlit run app.py

Features

# Streamline Analyst provides:

# 1. Smart data profiling
# - Auto-detect column types (numeric, categorical, datetime)
# - Distribution analysis per column
# - Missing value patterns (MCAR, MAR, MNAR hints)
# - Correlation analysis with significance

# 2. Interactive cleaning
# - Imputation strategies (mean, median, mode, KNN, model)
# - Outlier handling (IQR, Z-score, isolation forest)
# - Encoding (one-hot, label, target, ordinal)
# - Scaling (standard, minmax, robust)

# 3. Automated EDA
# - Distribution plots (histogram, KDE, box, violin)
# - Relationship plots (scatter, pair, heatmap)
# - Time series decomposition
# - Statistical tests (t-test, ANOVA, chi-square, Mann-Whitney)

# 4. Model pipeline
# - Classification: LR, RF, GBM, SVM, MLP
# - Regression: LR, RF, GBM, SVR, ElasticNet
# - Cross-validation with confidence intervals
# - Feature importance visualization
# - SHAP explanations

# 5. Report
# - HTML report with all plots and findings
# - Downloadable cleaned dataset
# - Model artifacts (pickle)

Natural Language Interface

### Example Prompts
- "Show me the distribution of all numeric columns"
- "Is there a significant difference in income between genders?"
- "Build a classifier to predict churn using all features"
- "What are the top 5 most important features for prediction?"
- "Clean the data: fill missing values and remove outliers"
- "Generate a summary report of this dataset"

Use Cases

1. Quick EDA: Rapid exploration of unfamiliar datasets
2. Data cleaning: Interactive preprocessing with AI guidance
3. Baseline models: Quick ML prototyping without coding
4. Report generation: Automated analysis reports
5. Teaching: Interactive data science demonstrations
