We are so pleased to welcome Steph Locke, CEO of Locke Data, to present this workshop! Steph generously extended her trip to Texas for the IT/Dev Connections Conference to include a stop in Austin and we're very grateful to have her here with us.

This event is organized by R-Ladies Austin, but all are welcome to attend!

About the Workshop

There have been some changes in R for data science over the past few years. Work hands-on with new packages and ways of doing things to achieve awesome models in many fewer lines of code.

Using packages like dplyr, broom, modelr, recipes, h2o, and furrr we’ll see how we can go from getting data to having an amazing model in no time at all.

This practical day will give people with experience in data science a new set of tools to implement and help them be more productive, whilst for people relatively new to data science it’ll help them get started quickly.
