The positive aspects of a structured data workflow are at hand: You will always know where your things are – no matter in which project you are currently working. If you stick to one work frame, you can also access your projects later and easily ...

I first got to grips with the R coding language to do the statistical analysis for my dissertation, but I still did all my actual writing in more traditional word processing apps. 1 This became a pain any time I needed to copy-paste an update into a ...

Over the past couple of months, I’ve been describing various aspects of the simulations that we’ve been doing to get ready for a meta-analysis of convalescent plasma treatment for hospitalized patients with COVID-19, most recently here. As I contin...

 I predicted on 25th August a second-wave in London in 2-4 weeks time. It looks like the recent media's coverage and the government's policy reaction are consistent with my prediction.The policy response of rule-of-six-in-social-gathering is mild....

We are on the lookout for a DevOps System Engineer. You are familiar with Linux, Docker, Git, CI/CD and Ansible. We offer interesting projects around the R ecosystem and a lot of freedom. Some on-site time will be required, but a lot of remote work is possible as well. ...

When I was an undergrad, a professor suggested I learn this statistical programming language called R. I took one look at the interface, panicked, and left. A lot has changed in the R world since then, not the least of which was the release of the RStudio integrated development environment. ...

Each winter season, avalanches pose a serious threat to those who adventure in mountainous regions. An avalanche is defined as a mass of snow sliding, flowing, or tumbling down an inclined surface, typically destroying everything in its path. This post...

Recently, I have been getting a few comments on my old article on image classification with Keras, saying that they are getting errors with the code. And I have also gotten a few questions about how to use a Keras model to predict on new images (of different size). Instead ...

collapse is a C/C++ based package for data transformation and statistical computing in R. Among other features it introduces an excellent and highly efficient architecture for grouped (and weighted) statistical programming in R. This post briefly e...

In the last post we started looking for repeated patterns in a time series, what we call Motifs. For the next question, we will still be using the datasets available at https://github.com/matrix-profile-foundation/mpf-datasets so you can try this at home. The original code (MATLAB) and data are ...
