  1. Advanced Research Skills Lecture 1 Introduction Olivier MISSA, om502@york.ac.uk

  2. Aims • Introduce the use of R for advanced statistical analysesbeyond "Statistics for Ecologists". • Demonstrate these analyses on a broad range of questions and situations. • Develop your understanding of statistical programming. • Empower you to tackle future analytical challenges on your own.

  3. Aims • Other skills will be developed too. • Produce posters using CorelDraw (graphics package). • Learn how to write a grant proposal.

  4. Learning Outcomes • At the end of the module, you should be able to : • Determine which test to use for significance testing. • Explore the inherent structure of your data through a wide range of multivariate techniques. • Work out which model "best explains" the variable you are interested in. • Produce high quality graphs (ready for publication) using fully R graphical capabilities.

  5. Organisation • Staff • Olivier Missa (OM), module organiser, R sessions om502@york.ac.uk • Emma Rand (ER), R sessionser13@york.ac.uk • Phil Roberts (PTR), CorelDraw session • ptr2@york.ac.uk • Peter Mayhew (PJM), Grant writing session • pjm19@york.ac.uk

  6. Organisation • Structure • 9 theoretical lectures (OM) on advanced stats. • 9 practical sessions (OM & ER) on using R. • 1 practical session (PTR) on CorelDraw. • 1 tutorial session (PJM) on Grant writing.

  7. Organisation • Content • L1 Introduction • L2 – L4Linear Models • L5 – L6 GLMs & Mixed-effects models • L7 Non-Linear Models • L8 – L9 Multivariate Analyses • Each lecture is accompanied by a practical session

  8. Organisation • Assessment • Open Data Analysis exercise, • Written reportwith Introduction, • Material & Methods, • Results, • Discussion. • particular emphasis on justifying the analysesand interpreting the results properly.

  9. What is R ? • "R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics" R website • A programming language, actually a dialect of S, which wasdeveloped in the 80s by John Chambers at the Bell Labs. • The Bell Labs then sold S to MathSoft (now Insightful Co.), which developed it further into S-Plus, a commercial Statistical package. • In the 90s, S was rewritten from scratch by two statisticians, Ross Ihaka & Rob Gentleman, from New Zealand. • Since then R has continued to grow in scale and scope and is currently maintained by about 20 people across the globe.

  10. Why use R ? • The Key Benefits : • it'sFreeIt won't cost you a penny ever • OpenHow things are calculated is not hidden • Fully customisableThe user is in full control • Cutting EdgeStats Pros use it to create new techniques • Very Widespread (increasingly so) Thousands of contributors (packages), millions of users • Supported by an international user communityhappy to provide help and assistance

  11. Why use R ? • The Drawback : • Steep Learning Curve • You need to learn the language • You need to know what you are doing (stats)

  12. What is R Good for ? • Absolutely everything (to do with data) • Statistics • Modelling • Programming / Simulations • Graphics(from very simple to complex, 2D, 3D, ...) • Database(simple relational functions) • Bioinformatics (Bioconductor project) • Platform interacting with other Softwares (e.g. Ggobi, WinBUGS, MySQL, GRASS GIS)
