A guide to the tidyverse for POL345 Students. […] POL345 is often Princeton students’ first foray into the programming language R. Through POL345, students gain an introductory overview of R, and programming generally, to conduct basic data analysis on their own. However, many further courses (SML201, SOC306, POL346), along with industry users of R, use the tidyverse instead, a “language” within R to conduct clean, readable data analysis. This book seeks to bridge that gap, revisiting each of the POL345 handouts using the tidyverse to introduce students to this “language within a language”. … Read more →

Arthur Small This course introduces tools and concepts of literate programming. Literate programming is an approach to creating documents that smoothly integrates data, code, and narrative writing. All analysts need to present their results in multiple formats: articles, slide decks, web sites, and so on.

This course will provide an introduction to an entirely different and better approach to scientific … Read more →

Our work for the course “Project in Data Analytics for Decision Making” is to predict the credit risk linked to customers for our client, a German bank. To do so, we used the CRISP-DM method (CRoss Industry Standard Process for Data Mining): Business understanding: Credit risk is defined as the risk of loss resulting from the failure by a borrower to repay the principal and interest owed to the lender. By performing a credit risk analysis, the lender determines the borrower’s ability to meet debt obligations in order to cushion itself from losses. It is therefore important to efficiently … Read more →

Add description […] Outline of preface (preliminary and incomplete). June 21, 2016. I started teaching the course Introduction to Financial Econometrics at UW in 1998. Motivation was to teach more statistics and quantitative methods to economics majors. I found that combining statistics topics with finance applications was very effective and popular. Early classes used Microsoft Excel as the main software tool (R was not around then). Experience with Excel was, and still is, in high demand by employers in the finance industry. However, Excel is not a good tool for doing statistics. In early … Read more →

An applied textbook on generalized linear models and multilevel models for advanced undergraduates, featuring many real, unique data sets. It is intended to be accessible to undergraduate students who have successfully completed a regression course. Even though there is no mathematical prerequisite, we still introduce fairly sophisticated topics such as likelihood theory, zero-inflated Poisson, and parametric bootstrapping in an intuitive and applied manner. We believe strongly in case studies featuring real data and real research questions; thus, most of the data in the textbook arises from collaborative research conducted by the authors and their students, or from student projects. Our goal is that, after working through this material, students will develop an expanded toolkit and a greater appreciation for the wider world of data and statistical modeling. Read more →

Introduction to Statistical Methodology, Second Edition […] The problem with most introductory statistics courses is that they don’t prepare the student for the use of advanced statistics. Rote hand calculation is easy to test, easy to grade, and easy for students to learn to do, but is useless for actually understanding how to apply statistics. Since students pursuing a Ph.D. will likely be using statistics for the rest of their professional careers, we feel that this sort of course should attempt to steer away from a “cookbook” undergraduate pedagogy, and give the student enough … Read more →
