With an increasing amount of data and more complex algorithms available to scientists and practitioners today, parallel processing is almost always a must, and in fact, is expected in packages implementing time-consuming methods. This course introduces you to concepts and tools available in R for parallel computing and provides solutions to a few important non-trivial issues in parallel processing like reproducibility, generating random numbers and load balancing.

This course covers in detail the tools available in R for parallel computing.

This course provides a comprehensive introduction on how to plot data with R’s default graphics system, base graphics.After an introduction to base graphics, we look at a number of R plotting examples, from simple graphs such as scatterplots to plotting correlation matrices. The course finishes with exercises in plot customization. This includes using R plot colors effectively and creating and saving complex plots in R.Base Graphics Background R supports four different graphics systems: base graphics, grid graphics, lattice graphics, and ggplot2. Base graphics is the default graphics system in R, the easiest of the four systems to learn to use, and provides a wide variety of useful tools, especially for exploratory graphics where we wish to learn what is in an unfamiliar dataset.

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to working with base graphics in R.

Once you've started learning tools for building interactive web applications with shiny, this course will translate this knowledge into building dashboards. Dashboards, a common data science deliverable, are pages that collate information, often tracking metrics from a live-updating data source. You'll gain more expertise using shiny while learning to build and design these dynamic dashboards. In the process, you'll pick up tips to optimize performance as well as best practices to create a visually appealing product.

In this course you'll learn to build dashboards using the shinydashboard package.

If you're working with a lot of text, you'll eventually want to know more about it. For example, what's it about? What do the words mean in context? Who is doing what to whom? What companies and products are mentioned? Which texts are similar to each other? In this course, you'll learn how to use spaCy, a fast-growing industry standard library for NLP in Python, to build advanced natural language understanding systems, using both rule-based and machine learning approaches.

As a data scientist, you will encounter many situations where you will need to extract key information from huge corpora of text, clean messy data containing strings, or detect and match patterns to find useful words. All of these situations are part of text mining and are an important step before applying machine learning algorithms. This course will take you through understanding compelling concepts about string manipulation and regular expressions. You will learn how to split strings, join them back together, interpolate them, as well as detect, extract, replace, and match strings using regular expressions. On the journey to master these skills, you will work with datasets containing movie reviews or streamed tweets that can be used to determine opinion, as well as with raw text scraped from the web.

Learn about string manipulation and become a master at using regular expressions.

Have you ever wondered how Gmail autocompletes your sentences, or, what powers the WhatsApp suggestions when you’re typing a message? The technology behind these helpful writing hints is machine learning. In this course, you'll build and train machine learning models for different natural language generation tasks. For example, you'll train a model on the literary works of Shakespeare and generate text in the style of his writing. You'll also learn how to create a neural translation model to translate English sentences into French. Finally, you'll train a seq2seq model to generate your own natural language autocomplete sentences, just like Gmail!
