  • This particular example would be really easy were we able to use RStudio’s manipulate package. That is only for RStudio users though. Well, not really. There is a simple map available in the gWidgetsWWW2.rapache package that allows us to easily use that specification

    • Antonio Legaz
       
      El lenguaje R representa una alternativa gratuita a otros lenguajes como SAS o SPSS cuyo coste no puede ser afrontado por algunas empresas.
    • Juanjo Cristian
       
      Cada vez más empresas están incorporando R en el análisis de datos, en vez de otros entornos de programación estadística como SAS o SPSS. Como parte de un esfuerzo para incrementar este uso en empresas, se ha añadido un soporte de fuentes de "grandes datos" y se espera añadir interfaz gráfica de usuario para hacerlo más accesible

  • As you can see, for organizations who need to create advanced analytics applications, R is integrated throughout the analytics stack: for data access, for presentation of results, and of course for the statistical analysis process itself. This degree of integration by so many companies is indicative of the level of demand for R throughout the enterprise. As the leading provider of commercial software and support for R, Revolution Analytics supports R users througout the organization,

What is Open Source R - 0 views

    • Javier Soriano
       
      R es un lenguaje de programación diseñado expresamente para el análisis de datos. R hace que sea fácil extraer conclusiones a partir de datos multidimensionales con tablas de paneles múltiples, superficies 3-D, etc.
    • Javier Soriano
       
      R es utilizado en el campo de la ciencia y de las finanzas. Dentro del campo de la ciencia lo podemos encontrar en Análisis de imágenes médicas, estadísticas generales,..., entre otras. Por el contrario, en finanzas, lo encontramos en econometría, análisis financieros, etc.
  • Create beautiful and unique data visualizations Representing complex data with charts and graphs is an essential part of the data analysis process, and R goes far beyond the traditional bar chart and line plot. Heavily influenced by thought leaders in data visualization like Bill Cleveland and Edward Tufte, R makes it easy to draw meaning from multidimensional data with multi-panel charts, 3-D surfaces and more. The custom charting capabilities of R are featured in many of the stunning infographics seen in the New York Times, The Economist, and the FlowingData blog.

  • Draw on the talents of data scientists worldwide As a thriving open-source project, R is supported by a community of more than 2 million users and thousands of developers worldwide. Whether you’re using R to optimize portfolios, analyze genomic sequences, or to predict component failure times, experts in every domain have made resources, applications and code available for free, online.

      Aqui un consultor de Deloitte nos muestra como usa R para explorar datos y ajustarlos en distribuciones, calculando proyecciones usando la regresion de Poisson. Ademas lo contrapone a Excel, concluyendo que no hay una hoja de calculo en la que confundir columnas, si no que en lineas de codigo simple que se puede copiar se puede trabajar mas facilmente con grandes cantidades de datos
  • Jim Guszcza (Predictive Analytics lead at Deloitte Consulting and Assistant Professor at UW-Madison) who gave a great webinar presentation yesterday
  • R is used for exploratory data analysis and modeling, with a live examples of fitting a mixute distribution to bimodal claims data, and calculating loss reserves using Poisson regression.

  • Just one simple line of [R] code that would work just as well for a 100-by-100 loss triangle as it would for a 10-by-10 triangle. No hidden cells in the spreadsheet, no risk of spreadsheet error. It's a little bit of code you could look at in one screen, it's replicable ... and this does all the work that a spreadsheet would do. 
  • He uses the Allstate Claim Prediction Challenge data (from a recent Kaggle competition) to fit a Tweedie model to 13 million records of claim data. (The Tweedie distribution is often used to model insurance claims, where many claims are exactly zero, and non-zero claims follow a continuous Gamma-like distribution.) Using the forthcoming rxGLM function, he fit the model to this large data set in just over two minutes (140.22 seconds) using a single quad-core PC.

Rise of Open and Free R Language : Target  Health  Global - 0 views

    • grupo empresa
       
      R desde 2011 esta creciendo a un ritmo muy rápido, sobrepasando los principales lenguajes como MATLAB o SAS, esto es importante ya que R es un leguaje freeware. Una de las razones de su crecimiento es que tiene características únicas como la computación en paralelo, que permite juntar los recursos de varias CPU's sin tener que limitarse a las velocidades de reloj impuestas por los factores tecnológicos.
  • Started as an open source programming language for data analysis, its popularity and use is spreading to major companies as diverse as Pfizer, Merck, Google, Shell, and Bank of America.
  • R programming language offers something that most of current languages do not support well, parallelism. With a package named “SNOW”, R can take advantage of multiple cores in the CPU. Due to the limitation in increasing CPU’s clock speed, Intel and AMD are stuffing more cores into the processors. There aren’t many software in the market that can take advantage of this, but R is.

      En esta entrevista al director de operaciones de Revolution Analytics, Jeff Edhardt, se explica brevemente lo que es el lenguaje R, un lenguaje de programación estadístico de código abierto, usado para analizar cualquier tipo de dato. Remarca el hecho de que se está extendiendo cada vez más ya que las compañías que utilizan alguna herramienta de análisis de datos están obteniendo un mayor rendimiento en la empresa. Jeff Edhardt finaliza explicando el amplio rango de aplicaciones que se le pueden extraer a este lenguaje.
  • It's incredibly diverse. It ranges from pharmaceuticals for drug developments, biostatistics, gene analysis, genetic analysis into finance. It's very heavily used in hedge funds, quantitative finance risk, credit analysis, fraud detection, understanding customer churn, understanding customer behavior, pricing optimization forecasting. We have customers who are entertainment or gaming companies using it to understand buying patterns and effectiveness of different media campaigns. So it ranges anywhere from life sciences to finance to Internet to telecom.

  • Part of what we are doing is helping to consumerize or democratize analytics. Because we can provide this software so much more cost effectively, it's giving opportunities for individuals, startups, small and medium businesses to come in and have equal analytic capability and processing power both from a software standpoint, but also from the more cost-effective hardware that we're able to run on to give them the same tools that these giant organizations do. So now all of a sudden we've started to level the playing field a little bit.

  • R is also the name of a popular programming language used by a growing number of data analysts inside corporations and academia.
  • R is really important to the point that it’s hard to overvalue it,” said Daryl Pregibon
  • “It allows statisticians to do very intricate and complicated analyses without knowing the blood and guts of computing systems.”
  • R is similar to other programming languages, like C, Java and Perl

  • Web sites are displayed using an open-source application called Apache,
  • the end results of all this technology via the Firefox Web
  • can help illuminate data trends more clearly than is possible by entering information into rows and columns
  • What makes R so useful
  • is that statisticians, engineers and scientists can improve the software’s code or write variations for specific tasks
  • advanced algorithms, colored and textured graphs and mining techniques to dig deeper into databases.
  • Packages written for R add
  • the professors considered their coding efforts more of an academic game than anything else.
  • the notion of devising something like R sprang up during a hallway conversation.
  • They both wanted technology better suited for their statistics students
  • R immediately gained a following with people who saw the possibilities in customizing the free software.

  • However, there is another issue that limits R’s scalability…
  • R is limited by the memory and processing power of the machine where it runs
  • this chews up memory faster.
