MST Demonstration

This directory contains the materials needed to demonstrate the MST method for synthesising data. To make the demo as accessible as possible, we synthesise the 1% Teaching File for the 2011 Census.

The demonstration can be found in main.html, and its source code is in main.ipynb. If you're recreating the analysis yourself, download the data and save it as main.csv in this directory. Then you can run the notebook and render it however you please. To render it as it is here, use nbconvert and pretty-jupyter:

$ cd /path/to/mst-demo
$ jupyter nbconvert --to html --no-input --template pj main.ipynb --output index.html

Requirements for running the notebook are defined in requirements.txt. You will need access to a C/C++ compiler and graphviz for the visualisations.
