  • Synthpop: Bespoke Creation of Synthetic Data in R
    synthpop: Bespoke Creation of Synthetic Data in R Beata Nowok Gillian M Raab Chris Dibben University of Edinburgh University of Edinburgh University of Edinburgh Abstract In many contexts, confidentiality constraints severely restrict access to unique and valuable microdata. Synthetic data which mimic the original observed data and preserve the relationships between variables but do not contain any disclosive records are one possible solution to this problem. The synthpop package for R, introduced in this paper, provides routines to generate synthetic versions of original data sets. We describe the methodology and its consequences for the data characteristics. We illustrate the package features using a survey data example. Keywords: synthetic data, disclosure control, CART, R, UK Longitudinal Studies. This introduction to the R package synthpop is a slightly amended version of Nowok B, Raab GM, Dibben C (2016). synthpop: Bespoke Creation of Synthetic Data in R. Journal of Statistical Software, 74(11), 1-26. doi:10.18637/jss.v074.i11. URL https://www.jstatsoft. org/article/view/v074i11. 1. Introduction and background 1.1. Synthetic data for disclosure control National statistical agencies and other institutions gather large amounts of information about individuals and organisations. Such data can be used to understand population processes so as to inform policy and planning. The cost of such data can be considerable, both for the collectors and the subjects who provide their data. Because of confidentiality constraints and guarantees issued to data subjects the full access to such data is often restricted to the staff of the collection agencies. Traditionally, data collectors have used anonymisation along with simple perturbation methods such as aggregation, recoding, record-swapping, suppression of sensitive values or adding random noise to prevent the identification of data subjects.

  • Bootstrapping Regression Models
    Bootstrapping Regression Models Appendix to An R and S-PLUS Companion to Applied Regression John Fox January 2002 1 Basic Ideas Bootstrapping is a general approach to statistical inference based on building a sampling distribution for a statistic by resampling from the data at hand. The term ‘bootstrapping,’ due to Efron (1979), is an allusion to the expression ‘pulling oneself up by one’s bootstraps’ – in this case, using the sample data as a population from which repeated samples are drawn. At first blush, the approach seems circular, but has been shown to be sound. Two S libraries for bootstrapping are associated with extensive treatments of the subject: Efron and Tibshirani’s (1993) bootstrap library, and Davison and Hinkley’s (1997) boot library. Of the two, boot, programmed by A. J. Canty, is somewhat more capable, and will be used for the examples in this appendix. There are several forms of the bootstrap, and, additionally, several other resampling methods that are related to it, such as jackknifing, cross-validation, randomization tests,andpermutation tests. I will stress the nonparametric bootstrap. Suppose that we draw a sample S = {X1,X2, ..., Xn} from a population P = {x1,x2, ..., xN };imagine further, at least for the time being, that N is very much larger than n,andthatS is either a simple random sample or an independent random sample from P;1 I will briefly consider other sampling schemes at the end of the appendix. It will also help initially to think of the elements of the population (and, hence, of the sample) as scalar values, but they could just as easily be vectors (i.e., multivariate).

  • A Survey on Data Collection for Machine Learning a Big Data - AI Integration Perspective
    1 A Survey on Data Collection for Machine Learning A Big Data - AI Integration Perspective Yuji Roh, Geon Heo, Steven Euijong Whang, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Data collection is a major bottleneck in machine learning and an active research topic in multiple communities. There are largely two reasons data collection has recently become a critical issue. First, as machine learning is becoming more widely-used, we are seeing new applications that do not necessarily have enough labeled data. Second, unlike traditional machine learning, deep learning techniques automatically generate features, which saves feature engineering costs, but in return may require larger amounts of labeled data. Interestingly, recent research in data collection comes not only from the machine learning, natural language, and computer vision communities, but also from the data management community due to the importance of handling large amounts of data. In this survey, we perform a comprehensive study of data collection from a data management point of view. Data collection largely consists of data acquisition, data labeling, and improvement of existing data or models. We provide a research landscape of these operations, provide guidelines on which technique to use when, and identify interesting research challenges. The integration of machine learning and data management for data collection is part of a larger trend of Big data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration and opens many opportunities for new research. Index Terms—data collection, data acquisition, data labeling, machine learning F 1 INTRODUCTION E are living in exciting times where machine learning expertise. This problem applies to any novel application that W is having a profound influence on a wide range of benefits from machine learning.

  • A First Step Into the Bootstrap World
    INSTITUTE FOR DEFENSE ANALYSES A First Step into the Bootstrap World Matthew Avery May 2016 Approved for public release. IDA Document NS D-5816 Log: H 16-000624 INSTITUTE FOR DEFENSE ANALYSES 4850 Mark Center Drive Alexandria, Virginia 22311-1882 The Institute for Defense Analyses is a non-profit corporation that operates three federally funded research and development centers to provide objective analyses of national security issues, particularly those requiring scientific and technical expertise, and conduct related research on other national challenges. About This Publication This briefing motivates bootstrapping through an intuitive explanation of basic statistical inference, discusses the right way to resample for bootstrapping, and uses examples from operational testing where the bootstrap approach can be applied. Bootstrapping is a powerful and flexible tool when applied appropriately. By treating the observed sample as if it were the population, the sampling distribution of statistics of interest can be generated with precision equal to Monte Carlo error. This approach is nonparametric and requires only acceptance of the observed sample as an estimate for the population. Careful resampling is used to generate the bootstrap distribution. Applications include quantifying uncertainty for availability data, quantifying uncertainty for complex distributions, and using the bootstrap for inference, such as the two-sample t-test.

  • Notes Mean, Median, Mode & Range
    Notes Mean, Median, Mode & Range How Do You Use Mode, Median, Mean, and Range to Describe Data? There are many ways to describe the characteristics of a set of data. The mode, median, and mean are all called measures of central tendency. These measures of central tendency and range are described in the table below. The mode of a set of data Use the mode to show which describes which value occurs value in a set of data occurs most frequently. If two or more most often. For the set numbers occur the same number {1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10}, of times and occur more often the mode is 1 because it occurs Mode than all the other numbers in the most frequently. set, those numbers are all modes for the data set. If each number in the set occurs the same number of times, the set of data has no mode. The median of a set of data Use the median to show which describes what value is in the number in a set of data is in the middle if the set is ordered from middle when the numbers are greatest to least or from least to listed in order. greatest.

Data collection in evidence-based practice (EBP) might be considered the easiest part of the whole research experience. The researcher has already formed the hypothesis, developed the data collection methods and instruments, and determined the subject pool characteristics. Once the EBP researcher has completed data collection, it is time for the researcher to compile and interpret the data so as to explain them in a meaningful context.

  • Descriptive Statistics
    Statistics: Descriptive Statistics When we are given a large data set, it is necessary to describe the data in some way. The raw data is just too large and meaningless on its own to make sense of. We will sue the following exam scores data throughout: x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8, x9, x10 45, 67, 87, 21, 43, 98, 28, 23, 28, 75 Summary Statistics We can use the raw data to calculate summary statistics so that we have some idea what the data looks like and how sprad out it is. Max, Min and Range The maximum value of the dataset and the minimum value of the dataset are very simple measures. The range of the data is difference between the maximum and minimum value. Range = Max Value − Min Value = 98 − 21 = 77 Mean, Median and Mode The mean, median and mode are measures of central tendency of the data (i.e. where is the center of the data). Mean (µ) The mean is sum of all values divided by how many values there are N 1 X 45 + 67 + 87 + 21 + 43 + 98 + 28 + 23 + 28 + 75 xi = = 51.5 N i=1 10 Median The median is the middle data point when the dataset is arranged in order from smallest to largest. If there are two middle values then we take the average of the two values. Using the data above check that the median is: 44 Mode The mode is the value in the dataset that appears most. Using the data above check that the mode is: 28 Standard Deviation The standard deviation (σ) measures how spread out the data is.
