Amazing project, but seriously why do people spend their time and energy to implement 3d bar charts?

I can totally recommend knitr by the amazing yihui xie ( https://yihui.org/knitr/ ) for this use case. It allows you to write R code chunks directly in your latex code and the output of the code (tables, plots) is then

Also an R package exists to do this on top of ggplot2: http://xkcd.r-forge.r-project.org/

In my opinion, if such a culture- and time-dependent phenomenon is interesting, it is still worth studying. If this dependence is obvious, researchers should simply not claim that the phenomenon is generalizable. The replication crisis has

I agree that in general statistics is more concerned about inference, while machine learning focuses on prediction. On the other hand, there is such a huge overlap between the fields that it is hard to make a distinction. Also there are st

Nice article. For those who are more interested in mosaic plots, statisticians have already done a lot of work on this issue. For R there are many nice solutions, e.g. the strucplot framework which allows to visualize complicated relationsh

RIP Professor Winston! I really enjoyed your AI lectures. For example, the SVM lecture ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PwhiWxHK8o=_PwhiWxHK8o=_Pwh... ), is by far the best explanation of SVMs I've ever heard, highly r

Highly recommend the novel which provides the basis for this movie „Traumnovelle“ by Arthur Schnitzler ( https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumnovelle ). The novel seems to be heavily influenced by Freudian psycho analysi

Recently a good friend gave me a small Galton board for my birthday and it stands now on my desk. It is so cool to do a little "simulation" and see the magic of the central limit theorem. Highly recommended as a gift for any stat

I am surprised by how many people equal frequentist statistics with Neyman-Pearson hypothesis testing. In my opinion, the main difference between the two approaches being whether the parameters of a statistical model are considered as fixed

As someone who has a master's degree in statistics and often uses Bayesian statistics, I think we should not focus on whether one is a Bayesian or a frequentist, but rather be pragmatic and take the most practical approach to solving

I am a happy owner of an SE and I am afraid of the moment it breaks down. Can anyone recommend an alternative compact phone with similar build quality and the same features in terms of software and hardware?
