My first package, zipcode, is now available on CRAN. It contains the CivicSpace database of 43,191 U.S. zip codes.![]()
Optimization means to seek minima or maxima of a funtion within a given defined domain. If a function reach its maxima or minima, the derivative at that point is approaching to 0. If we apply Newton-Raphson method for root finding to f’, we can get the optimizing f. Read More: 223 Words Totally

Jesse Bridgewater works on "social search awesomeness" for the Bing search engine, and is setting up his dev environment with the necessary tools including python, vim, and R. Jesse has shared a handy script he uses to install all the specialty packages he uses for his data analysis. This is a handy script to modify for your own purposes,...
The Facebook Data Team has published an analysis of the status updates of Facebook users, by categorizing words according to the 68 categories of the Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count Dictionary, and tabulating the frequencies of their use. It's fairly interesting to see this kind of analysis applied to Facebook, but unfortunately doesn't reveal much in the way of...
The foundamental idea of numerical integration is to estimate the area of the region in the xy-plane bounded by the graph of function f(x). The integral was esimated by divide x to small intervals, then add all the small approximations to give a total approximation. Read More: 468 Words Totally

My goal is to develop a means of detecting chromosome bias from a human BAM file.
Because I've been working with proprietary and novel plant genomes for the last three years, I haven't had the chance to use any of the awesome UCSC-based annotational features that have been introduced and refined in Bioconductor until now. I've returned to biomedical research...
