Advanced Statistical Analysis Using R: Online
ACSPRI 2025 Summer Program
https://www.acspri.org.au/summer-program-2025/advanced-statistical-analysis-using-r-online
Description:
The focus of this course is on learning advanced statistical methods using R.
R is a free software environment for scientific and statistical computing and graphics that runs on all common computing platforms. An active and highly skilled developer community works on development and improvement. It has become an environment of choice for the implementation of new methodology. It is at the same time attracting wide attention from statistical application area specialists. The powerful and innovative graphics abilities available in R include the provision of well-designed publication-quality plots.
The first day of this course will focus on the R software environment, the remaining days of this workshop will focus on learning advanced statistical methods with R.
We will spend an almost equal amount of time in PowerPoint sessions and computer exercises. During the PowerPoint sessions the focus will be on the statistical methods with minimal discussion of computer software. During the computer exercise time you will be using R to apply the statistical methods taught in the lectures.
At the start of each session of computer exercises Mark will perform the first exercise in each set on his own computer demonstrating to the class the use of the software and the statistical results obtained.
