Supported Formats

You can load datasets into ADS, either locally or from network file systems.

You can open datasets with DatasetFactory, DatasetBrowser or pandas. DatasetFactory allows datasets to be loaded into ADS.

DatasetBrowser supports opening the datasets from web sites and libraries, such as scikit-learn directly into ADS.

When you open a dataset in DatasetFactory, you can get the summary statistics, correlations, and visualizations of the dataset.
