Introduction to R for Data Mining (Taught by Revolution Analytics – 31,000+ Views)

Revolution Analytics is often asked “What is the best way to learn R?” While acknowledging that there may be as many effective learning styles as there are people they have identified three factors that greatly facilitate learning R.

For a quick start:

  • Find a way of orienting yourself in the open source R world
  • Have a definite application area in mind
  • Set an initial goal of doing something useful and then build on it

High Performance Predictive Analytics in R and Hadoop
Presented August 27, 2013

Hadoop is rapidly being adopted as a major platform for storing and managing massive amounts of data, and for computing descriptive and query types of analytics on that data. However, it has a reputation for not being a suitable environment for high performance complex iterative algorithms such as logistic regression, generalized linear models, and decision trees.

At Revolution Analytics, we think that reputation is unjustified, and in this webinar, you will learn the approach we have taken to porting our suite of High Performance Analytics algorithms to run natively and efficiently in Hadoop.
