Instructor-led training over the course of five half-day sessions with in-class exercises as well as homework. It can be delivered as a classroom or distance (online) course.

Audience

• managers
• developers
• scientists
• students

Format of the course

on-line instruction and discussion OR face-to-face workshops

R is an open-source free programming language for statistical computing, data analysis, and graphics. R is used by a growing number of managers and data analysts inside corporations and academia. R has also found followers among statisticians, engineers and scientists without computer programming skills who find it easy to use. Its popularity is due to the increasing use of data mining for various goals such as set ad prices, find new drugs more quickly or fine-tune financial models. R has a wide variety of packages for data mining.

This course covers the manipulation of objects in R including reading data, accessing R packages, writing R functions, and making informative graphs. It includes analyzing data using common statistical models. The course teaches how to use the R software (https://www.r-project.org) both on a command line and in a graphical user interface (GUI).

This course is an introduction to applying neural networks in real world problems using R-project software.

This course is for data scientists and statisticians that already have basic R & C++ coding skills and R code and need advanced R coding skills.

The purpose is to give a practical advanced R programming course to participants interested in applying the methods at work.
