This book will teach you two things: how to make high quality statistical charts, and how to do it fast. The tool we’ll use is a R package called ezplot, which I wrote to help me with my consulting work. After working through this book, you will be able to create any of the top 10 most used charts in less than 1 minute.
This book introduces a formal framework for measuring ignorance (or nescience) and for guiding scientific discovery. Grounded in computability theory, Kolmogorov complexity, and artificial intelligence, the book analyzes how representations and models encode knowledge, and how their limitations can be quantified. The result is a new perspective on unknown unknowns, perfect knowledge, and the limits of science. For readers interested in artificial intelligence, scientific discovery, and the foundations of knowledge.
