R; a statistical analysis software

A Handbook of Statistical Analysis Using R

A Software Toolkit for Statistical Data Analysis

We present a project in progress to develop a software toolkit for statistical data analysis. The toolkit is based on advanced software technologies, integrating generic programming techniques with object oriented methods, and adopts a rigorous software process, to ensure a high quality of the product. Thanks to the component-based architecture and the usage of the standard AIDA interfaces, thi...

Teaching Probability with the Support of the R Statistical Software

The objective of this paper is to discuss aspects of high school students’ learning of probability in a context where they are supported by the statistical software R. We report on the application of a teaching experiment, constructed using the perspective of Gal’s probabilistic literacy and Papert’s constructionism. The results show improvement in students’ learning of basic concepts, such as:...

Exon array data analysis using Affymetrix power tools and R statistical software

The use of microarray technology to measure gene expression on a genome-wide scale has been well established for more than a decade. Methods to process and analyse the vast quantity of expression data generated by a typical microarray experiment are similarly well-established. The Affymetrix Exon 1.0 ST array is a relatively new type of array, which has the capability to assess expression at th...

Using the Statistical Analysis of Carbon Nano-tubes Dispersion in Bitumen Employing MINITAB Software

Nowadays, utilisation of Nano-materials as one of the most recent methods of bitumen modification has attracted attention of many researchers. However, not enough research has been pursued on their mixing with bitumen, because of their dimensions and specific properties. In this study, the carbon Nano-tubes were mixed with bitumen using different mixers and some images were recorded employing a...
