I am thinking about a new laptop. For one thing a 1366*768 resolution just seems to get impractically small. Secondly, faster comutations, more memory.Regarding CPU speed, my current laptop has a lowly Celeron 877. From what I see at my computers activ...
I was told the Eurostat package would be interesting for me. This is indeed true and now I want to use it to plot some data which are related core of some of the European policies; debt.In these plots I only show individual countries, not aggrega...
As final part of my paper helicopter experiment analysis (part I, part II) I do a reanalysis for one more data set. In 2002 Erik Erhardt and Hantao Mai did an extensive experiment, see The Search for the Optimal Paper Helicopter. They did a number of s...
Last week I created a JAGS model combining data from two paper helicopter datasets. This week, I will use the model to find the longest flying one.PredictingThe JAGS/RJAGS system has no predict() function that I know of. What I therefore did is adapt t...
The paper helicopter is one of the devices to explain about design of experiments. The aim is to create the longest flying paper helicopter by means of experimental design.Paper helicopters are a nice example, because they are cheap to make, easy to te...
This is the time when we celebrate the end of the second world war in The Netherlands, so I thought to do somwthig with data from that era. One of the things I enjoyed were books on the sea warfare, such as 'The Cruel Sea'by Nicholas Monsarrat. In that...
A while ago I had a post: 'Should I use premium Diesel? Setup. Since that time the data has been acquired. This post describes the results.DataData is registered by me in 2014 and 2015. 2014 has standard Diesel, while 2015 has premium. Both are fr...
During the Christmas break I worked on some code to show unemployment by NUTS 2 region. At that point no 2014 data was available. When I noticed the 214 was available I dug up the code and plotted again.Data and CodeAs written, the code was made beginn...
This week I wanted to repeat the Theoph PK analysis of two weeks ago in Stan. It also suddenly dawned on me. For a non-linear model in classical statistics we think it normal to provide good initializations. In contrast, for those MCMC samples I rememb...
After last week's post on Theoph I noticed the MEMSS library contained more PK data sets. The Cefamandole data is an IV data set with six subjects. It is somewhat challenging, since there seem to be several elimination rates.DataData are displayed...
