  • The Rattle Package September 30, 2007
    The rattle Package September 30, 2007 Type Package Title A graphical user interface for data mining in R using GTK Version 2.2.64 Date 2007-09-29 Author Graham Williams <[email protected]> Maintainer Graham Williams <[email protected]> Depends R (>= 2.2.0) Suggests RGtk2, ada, amap, arules, bitops, cairoDevice, cba, combinat, doBy, e1071, ellipse, fEcofin, fCalendar, fBasics, foreign, fpc, gdata, gtools, gplots, Hmisc, kernlab, MASS, Matrix, mice, network, pmml, randomForest, rggobi, ROCR, RODBC, rpart, RSvgDevice, XML Description Rattle provides a Gnome (RGtk2) based interface to R functionality for data mining. The aim is to provide a simple and intuitive interface that allows a user to quickly load data from a CSV file (or via ODBC), transform and explore the data, and build and evaluate models, and export models as PMML (predictive modelling markup language). All of this with knowing little about R. All R commands are logged and available for the user, as a tool to then begin interacting directly with R itself, if so desired. Rattle also exports a number of utility functions and the graphical user interface does not need to be run to deploy these.

  • Statcharrms R Version Installation Guide
    StatCharrms R Version Installation Guide 2014-07-14 Written and Programmed By: Joe Swintek, BTS Based off StatCharrms SAS version developed by: Dr. John Green, DuPont Applied Statistics Group, Stine-Haskell Research Center Additional Testing By: Kevin Flynn, USEPA Jon Haselman, USEPA Funded By: USEPA Under Contract EP-D-13-052 Installation StatCharrms is a graphical user interface front end for R, designed for ease of operation that performs the recommended statistical procedure used in the Medaka Extended One Generation Test (MEOGRT) and Larval Amphibian Growth and Development Assay (LAGDA). The statistical procedures implemented within StatCharrms are; the Rao-Scott adjusted Cochran-Armitage trend test by slices (RSCABS), a repeated measures ANVOA using time and treatment as fixed effects, Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test, Dunnett test, Kruskal Wallis, Dunns Test, one way ANOVA, weighted one way ANOVA, mixed effect ANOVA for imbalanced replicate structures, and a mixed effect Cox proportional model for imbalanced replicate structures. StatCharrms is implemented as an R workspace preloaded with the required functions. To Start StatCharrms double click on the R icon labeled StatCharrms-V##.RData. Now the installation of the required packages can begin by typing : Install.StatCharrms() into the R console and then hitting enter. R is case sensitive so you will need to type the command exactly as it is above. Figure one shows what is should look like. Executing the installation command will, by default, create a folder on the C drive called “RLib” that will contain the libraries needed for StatCharrms to run. Figure 1: Next a window asking to select CRAN (Comprehensive R Archive Network) mirror will popup.

  • Sexy-Rgtk: a Package for Programming Rgtk2 GUI in a User-Friendly Manner
    sexy-rgtk: a package for programming RGtk2 GUI in a user-friendly manner Damien Lerouxa and Nathalie Villa-Vialaneixa;b a INRA, UR875, MIAT F-31326 Castanet Tolosan - France [email protected] b SAMM, Université Paris 1 F-75634 Paris - France [email protected] Keywords: Gtk2, RGtk2, GUI There are many dierent ways to program Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) in R.[1] provides an overview of the available methods, describing ways to program R GUI with RGtk2, qtbase and tcltk. More recently, the package shiny, for building interactive web applications, was also released (the rst version has been published on December, 2012). The package RGtk2 [2] is probably one of the most complete packages to program complex and highly customizable GUI. It is based on GTK2 (the GIMP Toolkit, http://www.gtk. org/), which is a multi-platform toolkit for creating Graphical User Interfaces. GTK2 oers a complete set of widgets and can be used to develop complete application suites working on Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. Although very exible, each RGtk2 interface results in a long script that has a counterintuitive syntax for most R users. For instance, the simple window of Figure1 1 is obtained with the command lines provided in Figure2 (left). Figure 1: A simple GUI interface made with RGtk2. One attempt to overcome the diculty of the RGtk2 syntax is the package gWidgets but, quoting its reference manual The excellent RGtk2 package opens up the full power of the GTK2 toolkit, only a fraction of which is available though gWidgetsRGtk2.

To Dr. Kimberly Raab-Graham for her guidance and vision which has nurtured me into the scientist I am today. To the Raab-Graham lab for listening to my rambling discourse, bad music, and being a clarifying force in moments of confusion.

To my sister for helping me realize what it is I believe. To my friends: Ariana, Alex & Alex, Jennifer, Kalen, Leslie, Peter, and Rick, who always inquired about my progress and emboldened me to move forward. To Elissa Jo for her constant encouragement and unwavering optimism at the most difficult moments. Finally, I dedicate the following quote to all the rodents whose heads have been sacrificed for my projects: “The world to which we have belonged offers nothing to love outside of each individual insufficiency: its existence is limited to utility […] Existence is not only an agitated void, it is a dance that forces one to dance with fanaticism.

Bioconductor was started approximately 10 years ago (Fall, 2001) by Dr. Robert Gentleman and others, and now consists of >460 packages for the analysis of data ranging from expression microarrays through next-generation sequencing. 1.1 Packages R software packages represent the primary product of the Bioconductor project. Packages are produced by the Bioconductor team or are from international con- tributors. Table1 summarizes growth in the number of packages hosted by 1 Table 1: Number of contributed packages included in each Bioconductor release. Releases occur twice per year.
