The Bioconductor project is a widely used open source and open development platform for software for computational biology. It is a leading platform for doing data science in Genomics.  This book covers the core functionality needed to deploy Bioconductor on modern datasets, and will lay the foundation for you to learn and explore parts of the project devoted to specific application domains.

Your correlation results are probably wrong. Sorry, but they are.You see, there is one really important thing to know about your correlations that mean that whatever results you get you can’t be sure they are correct. Beginner’s Guide to Correlation Analysis fixes that. Discover the world of correlation analysis. Get this book, TODAY!

Data engineers are the unsung heroes who make analytics and data-driven applications possible.  This handbook introduces the fundamentals of what it's like to work with data, and the skills and concepts needed to develop "data products" in the real world.

This book, along with the materials it provides access to, offers a guided path to learning the art of data science. Engage in weekly activities and learn how to ask a good question, explore datasets, and to use models to develop solid statistical evidence. In addition to the materials in the book, you will get access to lecture videos, receive emails with bonus material, and have access to videos of the authors discussing their views on each session’s activities.

Greenhouse gas emissions have caused considerable changes in climate, including increased surface air temperatures and rising sea levels. This e-textbook presents a series of laboratory exercises in R that teach the Earth science and statistical concepts needed for assessing climate-related risks. These exercises are intended for upper-level undergraduates, beginning graduate students, and professionals in other areas who wish to gain insight into academic climate risk analysis.

'Big Data' is certainly a cultural and business phenomenon. But what challenges do Data Scientists face in their day-to-day jobs. This collection of interviews with thought-leaders with experience at firms such as Etsy, Spotify, Amazon, Shopify and Stitchfix is an invaluable read to anyone working as a data scientist or managing a team. --------------------- To help support the scientific programming and data analysis community all proceeds from this book will be donated to NumFOCUS.

The official companion of Finding Hidden Messages in DNA, the popular first course in Coursera's Bioinformatics sequence. Learn how biologists have begun to decipher the strange and wonderful language of DNA without needing to put on a lab coat. This book contains the first two chapters from Volume 1 of Bioinformatics Algorithms: An Active Learning Approach.

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.
