A Criminologist's Guide to R
A Criminologist's Guide to R: Crime by the Numbers introduces the programming language R and covers the necessary skills to conduct quantitative research in criminology. By the end of this book, a person without any prior programming experience can take raw crime data, be able to clean it, visualize the data, present it using R Markdown, and change it to a format ready for analysis. A Criminologist's Guide to R focuses on skills specifically for criminology such as spatial joins, mapping, and scraping data from PDFs, however any social scientist looking for an introduction to R for data analysis will find this useful. Key Features: Introduction to RStudio including how to change user preference settings. Basic data exploration and cleaning – subsetting, loading data, regular expressions, aggregating data. Graphing with ggplot2. How to make maps (hotspot maps, choropleth maps, interactive maps). Webscraping and PDF scraping. Project management – how to prepare for a project, how to decide which projects to do, best ways to collaborate with people, how to store your code (using git), and how to test your code.

Learn R
Learning a computer language like R can be either frustrating, fun or boring. Having fun requires challenges that wake up the learner’s curiosity but also provide an emotional reward for overcoming them. The book is designed so that it includes smaller and bigger challenges, in what I call playgrounds, in the hope that all readers will enjoy their path to R fluency. Fluency in the use of a language is a skill that is acquired through practice and exploration. For students and professionals in the biological sciences, humanities and many applied fields, recognizing the parallels between R and natural languages should help them feel at home with R. The approach I use is similar to that of a ...
Replace, Repair, Restore, Relieve – Bridging Clinical and Engineering Solutions in Neurorehabilitation
The book is the proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on NeuroRehabilitation (ICNR 2014), held 24th-26th June 2014 in Aalborg, Denmark. The conference featured the latest highlights in the emerging and interdisciplinary field of neural rehabilitation engineering and identified important healthcare challenges the scientific community will be faced with in the coming years. Edited and written by leading experts in the field, the book includes keynote papers, regular conference papers, and contributions to special and innovation sessions, covering the following main topics: neuro-rehabilitation applications and solutions for restoring impaired neurological functions; cutting-edge technologies and methods in neuro-rehabilitation; and translational challenges in neuro-rehabilitation. Thanks to its highly interdisciplinary approach, the book will not only be a highly relevant reference guide for academic researchers, engineers, neurophysiologists, neuroscientists, physicians and physiotherapists working at the forefront of their field, but will also help to act as bridge between the scientific, engineering and medical communities.
Dawn of Knights
It's a fictional action/drama with some abstracts of reality, depicting the views and chronicles of an ex-Navy Seal as he comes to terms with his family obligations and his chosen life of clandestine missions for a private security firm. It begins with a soldier that joined the service in 1977 and watched the birth of terrorism as we know it today. Starting with the uprising in Iran against the Shah, it then leads into the hostage crisis that lasted 444 days. He tells a story of how he was discharged for his insubordinate actions in opposition of a group of rebels in Beirut after the Marine base was truck bombed. He gives his views on terrorism as an experienced combat soldier. He also talks...
Microeconometrics with R
This book is about doing microeconometrics, defined by Cameron and Trivedi as "the analysis of individual-level data on the economic behavior of individuals or firms using regression methods applied to cross-section and panel data" with R. Microeconometrics became increasingly popular in the last decades, thanks to the availability of many individual data sets and to the development of computer performance. R appeared in the late nineties as a clone of S. It became increasingly popular among statisticians, especially in fields where S was widely used. Twenty years ago, using R for doing econometrics analysis required a lot of programming because a lot of core methods of econometrics were not...
Introduction to Quantitative Social Science with Python
Departing from traditional methodologies of teaching data analysis, this book presents a dual-track learning experience, with both Executive and Technical Tracks, designed to accommodate readers with various learning goals or skill levels. Through integrated content, readers can explore fundamental concepts in data analysis while gaining hands-on experience with Python programming, ensuring a holistic understanding of theory and practical application in Python. Emphasizing the practical relevance of data analysis in today's world, the book equips readers with essential skills for success in the field. By advocating for the use of Python, an open-source and versatile programming language, we ...
Spatial Data Science
Spatial Data Science introduces fundamental aspects of spatial data that every data scientist should know before they start working with spatial data. These aspects include how geometries are represented, coordinate reference systems (projections, datums), the fact that the Earth is round and its consequences for analysis, and how attributes of geometries can relate to geometries. In the second part of the book, these concepts are illustrated with data science examples using the R language. In the third part, statistical modelling approaches are demonstrated using real world data examples. After reading this book, the reader will be well equipped to avoid a number of major spatial data analy...
Deep Learning and Scientific Computing with R torch
torch is an R port of PyTorch, one of the two most-employed deep learning frameworks in industry and research. It is also an excellent tool to use in scientific computations. It is written entirely in R and C/C++. Though still "young" as a project, R torch already has a vibrant community of users and developers. Experience shows that torch users come from a broad range of different backgrounds. This book aims to be useful to (almost) everyone. Globally speaking, its purposes are threefold: - Provide a thorough introduction to torch basics – both by carefully explaining underlying concepts and ideas, and showing enough examples for the reader to become "fluent" in torch. - Again with a focu...
