24.05.2023 | 09:00 - 12:00 Uhr | Region Leipzig
ScaDS.AI Dresden/Leipzig | Humboldtstraße 25 | 04105 Leipzig
In the course, theoretical aspects will be taught together with practical experience in R using the established package ggplot2. Beside the hands-on tutorial, participants will be shown typical problems in data visualization which frequently occur and sometimes even used to mislead data interpretation.
Data is in today’s science and economy perhaps the most important resource. Its representation as graphs and plots is the cornerstone for analysis, communication as well as generation of new hypotheses. In the course, theoretical aspects will be taught together with practical experience in R using the established package ggplot2. Beside the hands-on tutorial, participants will be shown typical problems in data visualization which frequently occur and sometimes even used to mislead data interpretation.
