Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Dr. Shirin Glander. Since I migrated my blog from Github Pages to blogdown and Netlify, I wanted to start migrating (most of) my old posts too – and use that opportunity to update them and make sure the code still works. Here I am updating my very first machine learning post from 27 Nov 2016: Can we predict flu deaths with Machine Learning and R?. Changes are marked as bold comments. The main changes I made are: using the tidyverse more consistently throughout the analysis focusing on comparing multiple imputations from the mice package, rather than comparing ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: S. Walsh. Ireland is a typically stable region from a seismic activity perspective as it is distant from major plate boundaries where subduction and sea-floor spreading occur. However, in reading the following article, I was surprised to discover that earthquakes occur quite frequently both off the Irish coast and within the country itself. Most of these events occur as a result of tension and pressure release in the crustal rock. The Irish National Seismic Network (INSN) maintains a dataset on 144 local earthquakes dating back to February 1980. The variables in the dataset are event date, event ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Chuck Powell. As I continue to learn and grow in using R I have been trying to developthe habit of being more formal in documenting and maintaining thevarious functions and pieces of code I write. It’s not that I think theyare major inventions but they are useful and I like having them storedin one place that I can keep track of. So I started building them as apackage and even publishing them to CRAN. For any of you who might findthem of interest as well. Overview A package that includes functions that I find useful for teachingstatistics ... Read More

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Jim Harris. Read more in The SAS Data Governance Framework: A Blueprint for Success Last year I endured one of the least enjoyable experiences in adult life – I moved. Despite all of its many time-consuming and unpleasant aspects, for me one of the few positives to moving is the opportunity to sell, donate or throw away stuff I no longer use. Unopened boxes from previous moves were easy pickings since if I never opened the box whatever was in it must not be very useful. Other easy choices included worn-out or ill-fitting clothing, damaged furniture, ... Read More

Feed: AWS Big Data Blog. AWS Glue provides enhanced support for working with datasets that are organized into Hive-style partitions. AWS Glue crawlers automatically identify partitions in your Amazon S3 data. The AWS Glue ETL (extract, transform, and load) library natively supports partitions when you work with DynamicFrames. DynamicFrames represent a distributed collection of data without requiring you to specify a schema. You can now push down predicates when creating DynamicFrames to filter out partitions and avoid costly calls to S3. We have also added support for writing DynamicFrames directly into partitioned directories without converting them to Apache Spark DataFrames.Partitioning ... Read More
