R Graphics Cookbook
This practical guide provides more than 150 recipes to help you generate high-quality graphs quickly, without having to comb through all the details of R's graphing systems. Each recipe tackles a specific problem with a solution you can apply to your own project, and includes a discussion of how and why the recipe works. Most of the recipes use the ggplot2 package, a powerful and flexible way to make graphs in R. If you have a basic understanding of the R language, you're ready to get started. Use R's default graphics for quick exploration of data Create a variety of bar graphs, line graphs, and scatter plots Summarize data distributions with histograms, density curves, box plots, and other examples Provide annotations to help viewers interpret data Control the overall appearance of graphics Render data groups alongside each other for easy comparison Use colors in plots Create network graphs, heat maps, and 3D scatter plots Structure data for graphing -
证析
《证析:大数据与基于证据的决策》的主题是Analytics,作者将一个英文新词Analytics译为“证析”借以指代在这个时代背景下对证据尤其是量化证据进行分析以影响决策的具体实践。《证析:大数据与基于证据的决策》更多关注数据对商业与社会领域决策的影响。《证析:大数据与基于证据的决策》在前言部分之外,分为上下两编。上编对证析所处的时代背景、证析对传统决策方式的挑战、证析在企业中的应用案例进行介绍,并着重介绍了实验在指导社会实践中的思想和实例。下编主要从证析对企业的价值、为了发挥证析的价值而在企业组织架构、考核体系、决策流程、组织文化等方面应有的考虑。除了介绍最新的管理思想与企业实践之外,因为证析的着眼点是数字与决策,所以贯穿全书也不可避免会涉及对科学研究方法的探讨。 -
