Session Goal

The session aimed to troubleshoot issues with the InstaPy package and enhance data analysis techniques using Python.

Key Activities

  • Resolved Missing Module Issue: Addressed the missing clarifai.rest module in the InstaPy package by providing installation and reinstallation instructions.
  • Selenium Troubleshooting: Worked on resolving Firefox browser driver issues with Selenium and InstaPy, including updating Firefox and installing geckodriver.
  • Data Analysis with Pandas: Developed Python code snippets for grouping, merging, and aggregating data using Pandas.
  • Text Analysis with spaCy: Implemented text processing techniques to filter out small words and connectors, and created dummy columns for frequent words in a DataFrame.
  • Graph Visualization: Used NetworkX and Matplotlib to visualize correlation structures and enhance graph clarity by adjusting edge thresholds.

Achievements

  • Successfully resolved the missing module issue in InstaPy.
  • Enhanced data analysis capabilities with advanced Pandas techniques.
  • Improved text analysis processes with spaCy, including the installation of the es_core_news_sm model.
  • Developed effective graph visualization techniques using NetworkX.

Pending Tasks

  • Further exploration of alternative browsers for Selenium sessions with InstaPy.
  • Optimization of graph visualization techniques for larger datasets.
