Homework on the "Descriptive statistics with R" University course.

It mostly consists of data visualization methods. Also, there are topics on cluster analysis and principal components.

Lab 1

  • Calculate descriptive statistics (mean, median, variance, quantiles, etc) for 2 variables by hand and using R, then compare the results

Lab 2

  • Data manipulation and visualisation with histograms, box-whiskers plots

Lab 3

  • Visualize the data on the world map

Lab 4

  • Visualize correlation maps for different types of correlation - Pearson, Spearman, Kendall
  • Highlight the clusters of highly correlated variables
  • Observe the correlation using scatter plots and correlation graphs

Lab 5

  • Perform PCA - principal component analysis
  • Visualize principal components in 2D and 3D plots

Lab 6

  • Form the clusters using PCA, dendrogram and different kinds of distance - Euclidean, Manhattan
  • Visualize clusters of variables on scatterplots, histograms, etc
