Understand more about the forced transport of African people using the Slave Voyages database.

Use tidymodels for unsupervised dimensionality reduction.

Measure how the frequency of some feature differs across some group or set, using the weighted log odds.

Learn how to tune hyperparameters for an XGBoost classification model to predict wins and losses.

I am happy to announce that a new version of my free, online, interactive course has been published!

Lately I’ve been publishing screencasts demonstrating how to use the tidymodels framework, from first steps in modeling to how to evaluate complex models. Today’s screencast demonstrates how to implement multiclass or multinomial classification using with this week’s #TidyTuesday dataset on volcanoes.

A lot has been happening in the tidymodels ecosystem lately! There are many possible projects we on the tidymodels team could focus on next; we are interested in gathering community feedback to inform our priorities.

This is an exciting week for us on the tidymodels team; we launched tidymodels.org, a new central location with resources and documentation for tidymodels packages. There is a TON to explore and learn there!

Lately I’ve been publishing screencasts demonstrating how to use the tidymodels framework, from first steps in modeling to how to tune more complex models. Today, I’m exploring a different part of the tidymodels framework; I’m showing how to implement principal component analysis via recipes with this week’s #TidyTuesday dataset on the best hip hop songs of all time as determinded by a BBC poll of music critics.

I’ve been publishing screencasts demonstrating how to use the tidymodels framework, from first steps in modeling to how to tune more complex models. Today, I’m using this week’s #TidyTuesday dataset on beer production to show how to use bootstrap resampling to estimate model parameters.
