Since April 2018 the R4DS community has been putting out unique datasets as part of its “Tidy Tuesday” series, which are open to explore and to hone your skills as a data scientist. I know I’m quite late to the party, but now that I have some time I ...

How to detect the unexpected? Is the behaviour of some measured value normal or did something unexpected happen? To answer these questions we need to detect anomalous behaviour in a time series. In this article I want to show you how we can do this wit...

Geo maps with R and Leaflet Data visualization can be tough to get right, and geospatial data is not an exception. Today you’ll learn how to build aesthetically pleasing interactive maps with R and leaflet.  Having problems with basic R visualizations? Here’s our guide for building stunning scatter ...

The end of the year is a great time to summarize accomplishments of the team. This year in MI2DataLab we summarized good things that happend in the form of baubles on the christmas tree (yes, this is the only known exception for using 3D plots). Each c...

For this particular project, we will be using the golem package to build our Shiny app. The golem framework consists of clean and distinct code that makes an app strong and sound to create scalable development for the future.
