Title: Bayesian Computation with RAuthor(s): Jim AlbertPublisher/Date: Springer/2009Statistics level: High Programming level: Low Overall recommendation: Recommended Bayesian Computation with R focuses primarily on providing the reader with a basic understanding of Bayesian thinking and the relevant analytic tools included in R. It does not explore either of those areas in detail, though it does hit

R provides several frameworks for composing figures. Base graphics is the simplest, grid is more advanced, and the lattice/ggplot packages provide convenient abstractions of the grid graphics system. Multi-element figures can be readily created in base...
I would like to share my experience of plotting different time series in the same plot for comparison. As an assignment I had to plot the time series of Infant mortality rate(IMR) along with the SOX emission(sulphur emission) for the past 5 decades in ...
Multivariate ordination methods are commonly used in ecology to investigate patterns in species composition in space or time. Constrained ordination methods such as redundancy analysis (RDA) and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) are effectively just multiple regressions, but we lack the … Continue reading →
Rounding off our reports on major new developments in SAS 9.3, today we'll talk about proc mcmc and the random statement.Stand-alone packages for fitting very general Bayesian models using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have been available for...
This blog following up my previous oneattempts to explain how the geo-pie map was created. I do not know how to attach a .rflow file in this blog. What you can do is to copy the following code into Notepad … Continue reading →
At the Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco today, Oracle announced the new Oracle Big Data Appliance, "a new engineered system that includes an open source distribution of Apache™ Hadoop™, Oracle NoSQL Database, Oracle Data Integrator Application Adapter for Hadoop, Oracle Loader for Hadoop, and an open source distribution of R." Oracle's foray into the Hadoop and NoSQL spaces...
Today’s market of climbing ropes offers a huge variety of models to choose from. If you don’t have a good idea of what you want, the task of selecting a rope can become a true challenge, or worst, almost a … Continue reading →
