This scatter plot explores the relationship between age, normalized brain volume (nWBV), and dementia severity (CDR) in the OASIS cross-sectional MRI dataset. Each point represents a patient, positioned by age and nWBV, with color encoding education level and point size indicating dementia rating. The visualization uses the vega-lite-api with d3.v5 for rendering, fetching data from a Gist-hosted CSV file. The chart is configured with custom styling for readability, including larger axis labels and a dark theme.

AI-generated description

A visualization constructed using the vega-lite-api.

In this MIR and Alzheimers dataset, we mainly look at the data table in file: oasis_cross-sectional01.csv

The important fields are:

  • nWBV – Normalized Brain Volume
  • CDR – Dementia
  • Educ – Education
  • M/F and Age – Patient info
  • eTIV – Estimated Total Intracranial Volume
  • ASF – Atlas Scaling Factor
