Mercator Fellow Bodo Winter

Statistics Workshop

As was the case in previous years, Mercator Fellow Bodo Winter offered a series of statistics workshops for members of the CRC. This time around the focus was on further developing people's programming and data visualization skills (e.g., writing style code, dealing with R markdown scripts, ggplot2, automatized text processing). On top of that, there was a refresher on the generalized linear model framework (including logistic regression, Poisson regression and mixed models) as well as a session on various cluster analysis techniques with a focus on Gaussian mixture models.
