DescriptiveStats.OBeu v1.2.1 release on CRAN

We are very pleased to announce DescriptiveStats.OBeu v1.2.1 on CRAN!

DescriptiveStats.OBeu is used on OpenBudgets.eu data mininig tool platform to estimate central tendency and dispersion of numeric variables along with their distributions and correlations and the frequencies of categorical dimensions for budget or expenditure datasets of Municipality across Europe.

The datasets on OpenBudgets.eu are described with the OpenBudgets.eu data model. Detailed documentation about OpenBudgets.eu data model can be found here

This package can generally be used to extract visualization parameters, convert them to JSON format and use them as input in a different graphical interface. Most functions can have general use out of the OpenBudgets.eu data model.

First install DescriptiveStats.OBeu

install.packages(DescriptiveStats.OBeu) # or# alternatively install the development version from github
devtools::install_github("okgreece/DescriptiveStats.OBeu")

and load the library

library(DescriptiveStats.OBeu)

Descriptive Statistics on OpenBudgets.eu tool platform

open_spending.ds is designed to estimate and return the basic descriptive measures, correlation, histogram and boxplot parameters of all the numerical variables and the frequencies of all the nominal variables of OpenBudgets.eu datasets.

The input data must be a JSON link that are described with the OpenBudgets.eu data model. There are different parameters that a user could specify, e.g. dimensions, measured.dimensions and amounts should be defined by the user, to form the dimensions of the dataset. The basic descriptive measures of tendency and spread, boxplot and histogram parameters are estimated, in order to describe and visualize the distribution characteristics of the desired dataset.

`open_spending.ds` input
Input	Description
json_data	The json string, URL or file from Open Spending API
dimensions	The dimensions of the input data
amounts	The measures of the input data
measured.dimensions	The dimensions to which correspond amount/numeric variables
coef.outl	Determines the length of the “whiskers” plot. Default is 1.5.
box.outliers	If TRUE the outliers will be computed at the selected “coef.outl” level
box.width	The width level is determined 0.15 times the square root of the size of the input data.
cor.method	The correlation coefficient method to compute: “pearson” (default),“kendall” or “spearman”.
freq.select	One or more nominal variables to calculate their corresponding frequencies.

Output

The output is a list in json format divided into four components of parameters and results with the first subcomponents.

Here is a sort description of these components:

`open_spending.ds` return
Function	Output	Description
`statistics`	Min Max Range Mean Median Quantiles Variance StandardDeviation Skewness Kurtosis	The minimum observed value of the input data The maximum observed value of the input data The difference between maximum and minimum The average value of the input data The median value of the input data The 25%, 75% percentiles The variance of the input data The standard deviation of the input data The Skewness of the input data The Kurtosis of the input data
`boxplot`	lo.whisker lo.hinge median up.hinge up.whisker box.width lo.out up.out n	Lower horizontal line out of the box Lower horizontal line of the box Horizontal line in the box Upper horizontal line of the box Upper horizontal line out of the box The box width of each variable Lower outliers Upper outliers The number of non-NA observations
`histogram`	cuts counts mean median	The boundaries of the histogram classes The frequency of each histogram class The average value of the input vector The median value of the input data
`frequencies`	Variable name frequencies “_row" relative.frequencies	The name of the calculated variable The frequency value Name of the categories of the variable Relative frequency values
`correlation`	Variable name Correlation value “_row"	The name of the calculated variable The correlation value The corresponding correlation variable

Examples

The dataset we use is available as json link in DescriptiveStats.OBeu package and represents the budget for Wuppertal for 2009 to 2020.

In R environment

open_spending.ds function’s input are data as json link and described with OpenBudgets.eu data model.
