R Commander Installation

There are, however, a few installation issues, particularly on Macintosh systems, and these are described in this document. A general point is keep is mind is that the Rcmdr package uses a number of other "contributed" packages (in addition to packages, such as tcltk and MASS, that are part of the standard R distribution), and these must be present for it to work properly: abind, aplpack, car, colorspace, effects, Hmisc, leaps, lmtest, multcomp, relimp, rgl, and (on Windows) RODBC and XLConnect. Many of these packages have their own dependencies, which depend on still other packages, etc. Once it is installed, to load the Rcmdr package, just enter the command library(Rcmdr). Notes for specific platforms follow: Windows. Data journalism and data visualization from the Datablog.

RStudio. RStudio. Data. The Visual Miscellaneum: A Colorful Guide to the World’s Most Consequential Trivia. My previous post about a graph depicting some interesting cultural information in the form of a cool graph led me into more of David McCandless work and I highly recommend his The Visual Miscellaneum: A Colorful Guide To The World’s Most Consequential Trivia (US markets) or Information Is Beautiful (European markets).

The Visual Miscellaneum: A Colorful Guide to the World’s Most Consequential Trivia

Do not opt for the Kindle version of the books, this is one book that you would love in paper. But ofcourse you don’t have to take my word for it, the TED talk by McCandless should give you a taste of what the book has in store. Cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Short-refcard.pdf.

How to hide emails from government snooping

Machine Learning for Hackers  The book covers the basic concepts and some useful tools, including: An introduction to R;* Basic stats and probability;* Supervised and unsupervised learning;* Linear regression and categorization;* Non-linear data and regularization;* Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and input correlation;* Multidimensional scaling (MDS) for clustering;* k-nearest neighbour (kNN) for social network analysis; and* SVMs for non-linear classification. The general structure of each section is to first introduce a new concept, then demonstrate it by applying the concept to a trivial data set. Next, the technique is applied to a real data set. This structure is a great way to understand a technique.

The complete process of first massaging the data and then determining the technique to apply is covered.
