  • An Efficient Way for Statistical Review Using the Rshiny Application
    PhUSE EU Connect 2018 Paper AD03 An Efficient Way for Statistical Review Using the RShiny Application Adarsh Nagare, Cytel, Pune, India Sameer Bamnote, Cytel, Pune, India ABSTRACT Statisticians often need to review critical reports before study submissions. Many reports include outputs based on statistical testing or model-based analysis. To ensure the accuracy of these reports, most of the time the Statistician needs to writes independent code. In case of tight timelines, it may not be feasible and quality of review can be impacted. To address this we describe use of an application that can save time for the Statistician. This application was created using open-source software R and Shiny, providing an efficient, time saving solution for review of critical statistical outputs without the need for extensive code writing. The aim is to review results for t-tests, AN(C)OVA, their non-parametric alternatives and model-based analysis which are performed in SAS®. User has flexibility to provide input data in excel, csv or SAS format. User can select the statistical test (or specify the model) as per requirement and statistical outputs will be just a click away. This paper demonstrates the application with a variety of illustrations. INTRODUCTION The authors work with clients from clinical research and FMCG field as Statisticians. As a part of the role we have to deal with programmers routinely to do the desired work (i.e. Tables, Listings and Figures) required for various reports. Most of the time, as a Statistician we need to validate the results for modelling or statistical tests or cross check them by writing independent code to ensure accuracy of the results, prior to the submissions.

The population was 509 comprising managers and employees selected purposively through stratified random method from the five states. The study used complete enumeration Four hundred and thirteen (413) out of the 509 copies of the questionnaire distributed were correctly completed, returned and used for the analysis indicating a response rate of 81%. Data were presented with tables and research questions were presented with statistically weighted means and standard deviation applied to the Likert scale items. Two hypotheses were formulated and tested with t-test statistic for difference in two means at 0.05 level of significance and 411 degrees of freedom.

    desmontando a un Analisis, de su tecnica, y de su obra Autor: Eduardo Aracil Campos Tutor: Francisco Javier Consuegra Panaligan Grado en Humanidades Curso académico 2018-2019 Desmontando a Banksy Eduardo Aracil Campos Título del trabajo: Desmontando a Banksy. Un análisis de su técnica y de su obra Firma del autor Firma del tutor académico Eduardo Aracil Campos Francisco Javier Consuegra Panaligan Trabajo de Fin de Grado Grado en Humanidades Facultad de Filosofía y Letras 2 Desmontando a Banksy Eduardo Aracil Campos Resumen La historia del arte urbano es la de la recuperación del espacio público de las ciudades por quienes realmente lo habitan, por aquellos que, en su vida rutinaria, en demasiadas ocasiones anodina, transitan por calles y barrios a menudo decadentes, desvencijados, abandonados… una suerte de figuras casi autómatas, fantasmales, que, sin embargo, al encontrarse con una obra de arte urbano salen de su aletargamiento y esbozan una sonrisa… o fruncen el ceño. En esta polaridad del arte urbano, en esa línea tan fina que separa vandalismo de arte, se mueve como pez en el agua Banksy, un artista que ha dado ese impulso definitivo que necesitaba el street art para presentarse ante la sociedad como un arte vanguardista, original, crítico y reflexivo, pero ante todo universal, accesible a todos los estratos sociales. Esa universalidad es la que representa Banksy y es el valor que el artista de Bristol da a su obra, una obra que, sin embargo, cada vez más frecuentemente es objeto de especulación por las galerías de arte y las casas de subasta. Podemos afirmar que Banksy es ya un fenómeno de masas del que se han escrito chorros de tinta y se han retuiteado miles de mensajes o compartido cientos de noticias.

In the first days of a lengthy regional tour, the king has appeared with top-ranking officials in Indonesia and Malaysia in pictures and clips that have been shared online millions of times. Indonesian President Joko Widodo shared on Facebook a video of himself dining with the king at the presidential palace in Bogor, near the capital Jakarta. In the video, both men comment on the vis- it, the first to Indonesia by a Saudi king in nearly five decades, and give viewers a rare peek into a state event. As Widodo holds what appears to be a phone camera, the king is seen dining before com- menting in Arabic on his 12-day visit to Indonesia, the longest leg of his month-long tour of Asia. “I’m very happy to be here in Indonesia and with the Indonesian people,” King Salman says to the camera, as an interpreter sitting behind him translates into Bahasa Indonesia. The king was also pho- tographed posing for a selfie with former president Megawati Sukarnoputri and her daughter Puan Maharani, who is a member of Widodo’s cabinet.

Culler, Chair The built environment | the buildings, utilities, infrastructure, cities and other constructed elements of the anthropocene | is becoming increasingly digitized. The complex array of equipment, sensors and other devices in these environments constitute cyberphysical systems which produce an incredible volume of data. However, this cyberphysical data is hard to ac- cess and understand because of the extreme heterogeneity and scale of the built environment: essentially every cyberphysical system is a custom-built “one-off" collection of equipment, devices and data sources that has been continually operated, retrofitted, expanded and main- tained over years, decades and centuries.

  • Duchampianska” Praktiker Inom Samtidskonsten
    Konstvetenskapliga institutionen ”DUCHAMPIANSKA” PRAKTIKER INOM SAMTIDSKONSTEN Författare: Belma Kratović© Fördjupningskurs (C) i konstvetenskap Vårterminen 2020 Handledare: Lars Wängdahl Till AKA ABSTRACT Institution/Ämne Uppsala universitet. Konstvetenskapliga institutionen, Konstvetenskap Författare Belma Kratović Titel och undertitel: ”Duchampianska” praktiker inom samtidskonsten Engelsk titel: ‘Duchampian’ Practices in Contemporary Art Handledare Lars Wängdahl Ventileringstermin: Höstterm. (år) Vårterm. (år) Sommartermin (år) 2020 2020 This study investigates the extent to which subversive practices of conceptual art can be identified in contemporary works. It attempts to understand if, despite the widespread understanding of conceptual art as a mainstream in today's art scene, there may still be examples of contemporary practice that are as deviant and challenging to the notion of art today as those that came at the forefront of the conceptual art movement. The standard historical definition of 'conceptual art' generally refers to the artistic movement taking place between 1966 and 1972. The aim of this study, however, is to give an account of its development both prior to and beyond that narrow temporal window, seeking to identify both the roots and the legacy of the philosophical aspects of conceptual practice. The study traces these roots to the actions of Duchamp, who shifted the focus from aesthetics to a more cognitive valuation of art, by designating an everyday object as an artwork; an action that paved the way for the notion that, rather than being skilled craftsmen, artists are the authors of meaning, and artworks are the creation and transmission of ideas. This ‘Duchampian’ approach which pushes and explores the boundaries of art within the framework of the artwork themselves has also influenced the selection of works for analysis.
