A few upcoming R conferences

Here are some conferences focused on R taking place in the next few months: Oct 26: Nor'eastR Conference (Providence, RI). A one-day R conference, organized by grassroots R community members in the Northeastern US.  Oct 27: SatRdays Belgrade (Serbia). Another city joins the popular SatRDays series of one-day, community led conferences.  Nov 7: EARL Seattle (Seattle, WA). The EARL London conference goes on a Stateside road trip, with a 1-day stop in Seattle. Nov 8-9: DC R Conference (Washington, DC). From the same organizers as the fantastic New York R Conference, this DC-based outpost will feature speakers including Mara Averick, Roger Peng, and Emily Robinson. Nov 9: EARL Houston (Houston TX). The EARL roadshow continues with a stop in Texas. Nov 13: EARL Boston (Boston, MA). The EARL roadshow concludes with a 1-day event in Boston. Dec 8: SatRDays DC (Washington, DC). Talk proposals for this Washington, DC instance of SatRDays are open until October 31. Jan 15-18 2019: RStudio::conf (Austin, TX). The annual conference from the makers of RStudio takes place in  Austin, Texas. I go to a lot of conferences these days, but those organized by the R community remain my favorite. Attending one of these events is a great way to learn new R skills, but equally importantly to meet other R users from a different disciplines, and perhaps discover that their problems and applications aren't that dissimilar from your own. I'll be at many of the events listed above, and I look forward to meeting you all there. If you can't find an event at the right time or place for you, take a look at the index linked below for a list of upcoming meetups, conferences and events from the R community.

Controlling legend appearance in ggplot2 with override.aes

[This article was first published on Very statisticious on Very statisticious , and kindly contributed to R-bloggers ]. (You can report issue about the content on this page here ) Want to share your content on R-bloggers? click here if you have a blog, or here if you don't. In ggplot2 , aesthetics and their scale_*() functions change both the plot appearance and the plot legend appearance simultaneously. The override.aes argument in guide_legend() allows the user to change only the legend appearance without affecting the rest of the plot. This is useful for making the legend more readable or for creating certain types of combined legends. In this post I’ll first introduce override.aes with a basic example and then go through three additional plotting scenarios to how other instances where override.aes comes in handy. Table of Contents R packages Introducing override.aes Adding a guides() layer Using the guide argument in scale_*() Changing multiple aesthetic par...

Using RStudio and LaTeX

(This article was first published on r – Experimental Behaviour , and kindly contributed to R-bloggers) This post will explain how to integrate RStudio and LaTeX, especially the inclusion of well-formatted tables and nice-looking graphs and figures produced in RStudio and imported to LaTeX. To follow along you will need RStudio, MS Excel and LaTeX. Using tikzdevice to insert R Graphs into LaTeX I am a very visual thinker. If I want to understand a concept I usually and subconsciously try to visualise it. Therefore, more my PhD I tried to transport a lot of empirical insights by means of  visualization . These range from histograms, or violin plots to show distributions, over bargraphs including error bars to compare means, to interaction- or conditional effects of regression models. For quite a while it was very tedious to include such graphs in LaTeX documents. I tried several ways, like saving them as pdf and then including them in LaTeX as pdf, or any other file ...
