Conditional RNN is one of the possible solutions if we’d like to make use of static features in time series forecasting. For example, we want to build a model, which can handle multiple time series with many different characteristics. It can be a mode...

For some reason, using other than the default font in plots has been a major problem for me in R. Supposedly, one can use the extrafont package to manage all of that but I found it too cumbersome. Instead, I found out that the showtext package can make my life ...

A common challenge when creating maps is how to include an inset map on your visualization. An inset map is a smaller map usually included on a corner that may provide additional context to the overall map, or may include map units than won't be usually represented properly.

We’ll be holding a in-person training workshop on NIMBLE, June 1-3, 2022, in Lisbon, Portugal, sponsored by the Centro de Estatística e Aplicações at the Universidade Lisboa (CEAUL). NIMBLE is a system for building and sharing analysis methods for statistical models, especially for hierarchical models and computationally-intensive methods (...

Submit an abstract proposal for the Appsilon Shiny Conference on 27-29 April 2022.  We’ve received strong engagement from enterprises. However, we want to allow ...

I’ve talked a little bit about pipes (written as %__%) in a past blog post, but they’re so important in R that I thought they deserved their own post. In this tutorial, I’m going to give an explanation of what pipes are and when the...

By far the easiest way to detect and interpret the interaction between two-factor variables is by drawing an interaction plot in R. It displays the fitted values of the response variable on the Y-axis and the values of the first factor on the X-axis. The second factor is represented through ...

R Consortium recently caught up with Emmanuel Olamijuwon and Nontsikelelo Shongwe, organizers of the Eswatini R Users Group (Twitter: EswatiniUseR). They discussed how the R user base is growing in... The post Eswatini R Users Group Forging Ahead Despite Pandemic Hurdles appeared first on R Consortium.

I am always struggled to model the changes in gasoline prices as a categorical variable, especially in a small amount of time-series data. The answer to improving the performance of modeling such a dataset can be to combine more than one model. This method of combining and aggregating the predictions ...

Two Hundred and two new packages made it to CRAN in January. Several were in applications areas that don’t show up very often, and a few of these made it into my January “Top 40” picks. My selections are listed below in thirteen categories: Agriculture, Computational Methods, Data, Engineering, Finance, ...
