How to Safely Remove a Dynamic Shiny Module
Despite their advantages, Dynamic Shiny Modules can destabilize the Shiny environment and cause its reactive graph to be rendered multiple times. In this blog post, I pre...
Inference vs Prediction in One Picture
Inference and prediction are two often confused terms, perhaps in part because they are not mutually exclusive. Both provide pieces of the “What is data telling me?...
Random Forest Classification explained in detail and developed in R
In supervised machine learning algorithms, Random Forest stands apart as it is arguably the most powerful classification model. When Microsoft developed their X-box game ...
Is R Shiny Versatile Enough to Build a Video Game?
A Video Game? In R Shiny? For the last two years, RStudio has been organizing a competition to showcase the power and flexibility of Shiny as a framework for creating app...
IBM's new quantum computer finally achieves a quantum advantage
The online conference, IBM Think 2020, was held in May 5-6 2020. During that conference, Dario Gil, IBM Research Director, was visibly, almost orgasmically, excited with ...
Bernouilli Lattice Models – Connection to Poisson Processes
Bernouilli lattice processes may be one of the simplest examples of point processes, and can be used as an introduction to learn about more complex spatial processes that...
Simple Trick to Dramatically Improve Speed of Convergence
We discuss a simple trick to significantly accelerate the convergence of an algorithm when the error term decreases in absolute value over successive iterations, with the...
