Simulation studies are used to understand the properties of statistical procedures. This technique is widely used when conducting power analysis for research studies, which is one focus for this workshop. Simulation studies can also be used to assess the performance of statistical procedures in non-standard settings, such as when there are concerns about missing data, […]

This workshop will cover techniques for conducting large-scale inference, using Python and its libraries. We will cover the principals of how large scale inference is different from classical inference, and why multiple comparisons should usually be accounted for in an analysis. We will then discuss the Bonferroni method, Benjamini and Hochberg's False Discovery Rate (FDR), […] |

This brief workshop will demonstrate the capabilities of two recent R packages, gganimate and patchwork. One package allows the data explorer to provide some lively enhancement to an otherwise static plot, without doing much more than standard plots with ggplot2. Likewise, the other package can seamlessly combine multiple ggplots of varying kinds into one cohesive […] |

This workshop will cover introductory concepts, tools, and techniques to model spatially referenced data observed over a regular or irregular grid. We will cover models such as spatial autoregressive that emphasizes the idea of spatial correlation via neighborhood. The workshop will focus on conceptual aspects, diagnostics tests, implementation in R, and interpretation of results. |
