R for Programmers: Quantitative Investment Applications

by Dan Zhang

After the fundamental volume and the advanced technique volume, this volume focuses on R applications in the quantitative investment area. Quantitative investment has been hot for some years, and there are more and more startups working on it, combined with many other internet communities and business models. R is widely used in this area, and can be a very powerful tool. The author introduces R applications with cases from his own startup, covering topics like portfolio optimization and risk management.

The author leads readers to merge mature and effective methdologies in traditional programing to R programing. It shows how to interface R with C, Java, and other popular programing laguages and platforms.

R for Programmers: Mastering the Tools

by Dan Zhang

Unlike other books about R, written from the perspective of statistics, this book is written from the perspective of programmers, providing a channel for programmers with expertise in other programming languages to quickly understand R. The contents are divided into four parts: the basics of R, the server of R, databases and big data, and the appendices, which introduce the installation of Java, various databases, and Hadoop. Because this is a reference book, there is no special sequence for reading all the chapters. Anyone new to the subject who wishes to master R comprehensively can simply follow the chapters in sequence.

R for Quantitative Chemistry

by David K. Gosser

R for Quantitative Chemistry is an exploration of how the R language can be applied to a wide variety of problems in what is typically termed "Quantitative Chemistry" or sometimes "Analytical Chemistry". Topics include: basic statistics, spectroscopic data, acid base equilibria and titrations, binding curves (of great current interest for biomedical applications), Fourier Transforms, and chemical kinetics and enzyme kinetics. An innovative feature is the discussion (as an alternative to the less stable nls packages) of the simplex adaptation subplex (R package) coupled with Monte Carlo analysis to determine confidence intervals for estimated parameters resulting from least squares optimization. Chemists who are interested in learning R as a research tool as well as Chemists who are teaching Quantitative Chemistry, as well as their students will be interested. This book is useful as most R books approach data analysis from an economic, social, medical, or biological context. Analysis of chemical data draws upon specific numerical models and a different set R programming and packages than is typically discussed in other disciplines. This book will be based upon, in large part, actual experimental data and will include end of chapter questions and projects. Readers are encouraged to email the author at gosserch@gmail.com and to follow the accompanying blog on Medium "R Programming for Quantitative Chemistry". Key Features: Elements of R programming for Chemists Literature Based Examples Includes Binding Assay Analysis Integrates theory, experiment, and R programming

R for SAS and SPSS Users

by Robert A. Muenchen

This book introduces R using SAS and SPSS terms. It demonstrates which of the add-on packages are most like SAS and SPSS and compares them to R's built-in functions. It compares and contrasts the differing approaches of all three packages.

R for Stata Users

by Robert A. Muenchen Joseph M. Hilbe

Stata is the most flexible and extensible data analysis package available from a commercial vendor. R is a similarly flexible free and open source package for data analysis, with over 3,000 add-on packages available. This book shows you how to extend the power of Stata through the use of R. It introduces R using Stata terminology with which you are already familiar. It steps through more than 30 programs written in both languages, comparing and contrasting the two packages' different approaches. When finished, you will be able to use R in conjunction with Stata, or separately, to import data, manage and transform it, create publication quality graphics, and perform basic statistical analyses. A glossary defines over 50 R terms using Stata jargon and again using more formal R terminology. The table of contents and index allow you to find equivalent R functions by looking up Stata commands and vice versa. The example programs and practice datasets for both R and Stata are available for download.

R Programming: Statistical Data Analysis in Research

by Samira Hosseini Kingsley Okoye

This book is written for statisticians, data analysts, programmers, researchers, professionals, and general consumers on how to perform different types of statistical data analysis for research purposes using R object-oriented programming language and RStudio integrated development environment (IDE). R is an open-source software with a development environment (RStudio) for computing statistics and graphical displays through data manipulation, modeling, and calculation. R packages and supported libraries provide a wide range of functions for programming and analyzing of data. Unlike many of the existing statistical software, R has the added benefit of allowing the users to write more efficient codes by using command-line scripting and vectors. It has several built-in functions and libraries that are extensible and allows the users to define their own (customized) functions on how they expect the program to behave while handling the data, which can also be stored in the simple object system. Therefore, this book serves as both textbook and manual for R statistics particularly in academic research, data analytics, and computer programming targeted to help inform and guide the work of the users. It provides information about different types of statistical data analysis and methods, and the best scenarios for use of each case in R. It gives a hands-on step-by-step practical guide on how to identify and conduct the different parametric and nonparametric procedures. This includes a description of the different conditions or assumptions that are necessary for performing the various statistical methods or tests, and how to understand the results of the methods. The book also covers the different data formats and sources, and how to test for the reliability and validity of the available datasets. Different research experiments, case scenarios, and examples are explained in this book. The book provides a comprehensive description and step-by-step practical hands-on guide to carrying out the different types of statistical analysis in R particularly for research purposes with examples. Ranging from how to import and store datasets in R as objects, how to code and call the methods or functions for manipulating the datasets or objects, factorization, and vectorization, to better reasoning, interpretation, and storage of the results for future use, and graphical visualizations and representations thus congruence of Statistics and Computer programming in Research.

R Programming and Its Applications in Financial Mathematics

by Shuichi Ohsaki Jori Ruppert-Felsot Daisuke Yoshikawa

This book provides an introduction to R programming and a summary of financial mathematics. <P><P>It is not always easy for graduate students to grasp an overview of the theory of finance in an abstract form. For newcomers to the finance industry, it is not always obvious how to apply the abstract theory to the real financial data they encounter. Introducing finance theory alongside numerical applications makes it easier to grasp the subject. <P><P>Popular programming languages like C++, which are used in many financial applications are meant for general-purpose requirements. They are good for implementing large-scale distributed systems for simultaneously valuing many financial contracts, but they are not as suitable for small-scale ad-hoc analysis or exploration of financial data. The R programming language overcomes this problem. R can be used for numerical applications including statistical analysis, time series analysis, numerical methods for pricing financial contracts, etc. <P><P>This book provides an overview of financial mathematics with numerous examples numerically illustrated using the R programming language.
