Formula Used
Each row supplies an X coordinate, Y coordinate, and magnitude. Marker sizes are mapped between selected minimum and maximum limits.
Linear scaling: m = mmin + ((s − smin) ÷ (smax − smin)) × (mmax − mmin).
Correlation: r = Σ((x − x̄)(y − ȳ)) ÷ √(Σ(x − x̄)²Σ(y − ȳ)²). Regression uses ordinary least squares.
How to Use
- Enter rows manually, paste data, or upload CSV or JSON.
- Choose labels, scaling, axes, colors, filters, and analysis options.
- Generate the chart and inspect statistics, groups, warnings, and selections.
- Export the visualization or processed dataset in your preferred format.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does bubble size represent?
It represents a third numeric variable such as confidence, frequency, error, sample weight, or importance.
Should marker radius or area represent values?
Area-based scaling is often easier to interpret because viewers compare visible marker areas.
Can categories use different colors?
Yes. Category groups receive palette colors, or each row can provide a custom color.
How are outliers detected?
The calculator supports Z-score distance across coordinates or IQR detection using bubble-size values.
Can I compare actual and predicted values?
Yes. Add actual and predicted columns to calculate MAE, MSE, RMSE, and R-squared.
What happens to invalid rows?
They are removed when validation filtering is enabled. Otherwise, generation stops with an error.
Can duplicate coordinates be combined?
Yes. Duplicate X and Y positions can be aggregated while their bubble sizes are summed.
Does the chart support zooming and selection?
Yes. Plotly provides zoom, pan, box selection, lasso selection, reset, hover, and click inspection.
Which export formats are available?
The chart exports to PNG, SVG, or PDF. Processed data exports to CSV or JSON.
