1. Introduction In this post we discuss the H2O machine learning platform. We talk about what H2O is, and how to get started with it, using R - we create a Random Forest which we use to classify the Iris Dataset. 2. What is H2O? The definition foun... [Read more...]

My 2018 #rstats year in review

December 3, 2018 | Matt's R Blog

This past year in R has been a good one for me; productive, exciting, different. I decided it was worth taking a moment to reflect and share. Goals were set and met. There were also unexpected changes. CRAN A year ago, at the tail end of 2017, I pu...

Very Non-Standard Calling in R

December 3, 2018 | John Mount

Our group has done a lot of work with non-standard calling conventions in R. Our tools work hard to eliminate non-standard calling (as is the purpose of wrapr::let()), or at least make it cleaner and more controllable (as is done in the wrapr dot pipe). And even so, we ... [Read more...]

An Utility Function For Monotonic Binning

December 2, 2018 | statcompute

In all monotonic algorithms that I posted before, I heavily relied on the smbinning::smbinning.custom() function contributed by Herman Jopia as the utility function generating the binning output and therefore feel deeply indebted to his excellent work. However, the availability of smbinning::smbinning.custom() function shouldn’t become my ... [Read more...]

Introduction to chartbookR

December 2, 2018 | Posts on Applied Economic R-esearch

“Data scientists … spend from 50 percent to 80 percent of their time … collecting and preparing unruly digital data, before it can be explored for useful nuggets.” (— New York Times). The chartbookR package allows the convenient creation of economic and financial data chartbooks. It handles most of the data wrangling and can thus ...

Linear Classification Models – Hepatic Dataset

December 2, 2018 | Posts on Anything Data

This post is following exercise 1 in Chapter 12 of Applied Predicative Modeling. Here I use the machine learning package CARET in R to make classification models; in particular, the linear classification models discussed in Chapter 12. The dataset in question is about hepatic injury (liver damage). It includes a dataframe of biological ... [Read more...]
