A hands-on guide for professionals to perform various data science tasks in RKey FeaturesExplore the popular R packages for data scienceUse R for efficient data mining, text analytics and feature engineeringBecome a thorough data science professional with the help of hands-on examples and use-cases in RBook DescriptionR is the most widely used programming language, and when used in association with data science, this powerful combination will solve the complexities involved with unstructured datasets in the real world. This book covers the entire data science ecosystem for aspiring data scientists, right from zero to a level where you are confident enough to get hands-on with real-world data science problems.The book starts with an introduction to data science and introduces readers to popular R libraries for executing data science routine tasks. This book covers all the important processes in data science such as data gathering, cleaning data, and then uncovering patterns from it. You will explore algorithms such as machine learning algorithms, predictive analytical models, and finally deep learning algorithms. You will learn to run the most powerful visualization packages available in R so as to ensure that you can easily derive insights from your data.Towards the end, you will also learn how to integrate R with Spark and Hadoop and perform large-scale data analytics without much complexity.What you will learnUnderstand the R programming language and its ecosystem of packages for data scienceObtain and clean your data before processingMaster essential exploratory techniques for summarizing dataExamine various machine learning prediction, modelsExplore the H2O analytics platform in R for deep learningApply data mining techniques to available datasetsWork with interactive visualization packages in RIntegrate R with Spark and Hadoop for large-scale data analyticsWho this book is forIf you are a data analyst, data engineer, statistician or an R programmer and aspiring to enter the field of machine learning and predictive analytics, then this is the right book to start your journey. Basic understanding of linear algebra/statistics would be beneficial and R programming would be required.
