R-Trento Users Group (RTUG)

The R-Trento Users Group is a shared space for academics, scholars, students, and professionals living and working in Trentino and surrounding areas that are passionate about the R language and its suite of tools.

The suggested pronunciation for RTUG is “Ar-TOO(g)”, akin to the Italian “Artù”.

Mission

RTUG mission is to spread the use or R language and tools within academia, industry and public administration.

How it works

RTUG is a community-driven group. We organize meetings, workshops, and seminars, we share news, and we publish posts and tutorials. We are open to collaborations and partnerships with other groups and organizations.

Meetings are the core of our activities: we plan to have two to three meetings per year, with a mix of invited speakers, tutorials, and member presentations. Meetings can be a great opportunity for networking, learning, sharing experiences, and possibly finding new collaborations or solution providers.

To collaborate with RTUG, you can:

  • Become a member: contact the group and ask for instructions. Membership if free and open to anyone interested. Please note that, to simplify the management of members mailing list, we are currently accepting one member per institution/department/workgroup.
  • Get to know us: join our meetings
  • Volunteer and advertise your R skills: contribute a post

Tukey vs. Student

R
tidyverse
inference
Tukey

To compare two samples, or groups, we can use a T-test. But if we want to compare more than two groups, we need to use Tukey’s test. In this post we investigate the reason why a Tukey’s test is more appropriate and robust than a set of pairwise T-tests for all possible combinations of groups. This is also an excuse to illustrate the power of purrr and dplyr packages, specifically for the use of map/reduce, join_left, and pivot_longer/pivot_wider functions.

With the excuse of doing signal analysis in R, this post discusses on how to deal with logarithmic scales and tick-marks in GGPlot2, and how to generate log-spaced grids to have an equally dense set of points in the resulting plot.
