Kurzbeschreibung

This interactive hands-on workshop addresses PhD students and students. It offers an introduction to basic concepts of descriptive statistics (types of variables, measures of central tendency and dispersion) and different possibilities of visualizing the data with R. We will discuss the visualization of categorical, continuous and discrete variables with the basic plotting functions in R and with the help of ggplot2, a popular add-on package for creation of high-quality graphs. The list of graph types includes scatter plots, bar charts, box-and-whisker plots, histograms, dot charts, rug plots, violin plots, pie charts, density plots, interactive 3D plots, correlograms, mosaic plots, etc.

In the course of the workshop there will be the possibility for participants to present their own research data and discuss ideas for visualization. If you're interested, in addition to your registration please contact Sarah Jablotschkin or Melissa Müller until January 31st, 2020, and hand in a short abstract (approx. 1 page) describing your research. If there are too many applicants already your presentation might be rejected.

Prior knowledge in R is not assumed.

Der Workshop verfügt über eine begrenzte Anzahl von Plätzen. Die Reihenfolge der Anmeldung entscheidet über die Zulassung.
