Welcome to the wiki for data and model analysis!

Data and model analysis @ SRC

This section collects hints and tricks for how to use our in-house technical resources for doing data and model analysis. The page is currently maintained by Ingo and members from the SESLINK group. Updates can be suggested through the Coding club - currently meeting on Tuesdays 16:00.

• Visualization techniques - collection of links from R and Jupyter to produce figures, infographics, ...
• Git version control for paper, data analysis and modeling projects
• NetLogo tips and tricks for designing simulation experiments
• R tips and tricks for statistical analysis
• Gunvor - how to access our computation server
• Jupyter Notebooks on Gunvor
• Linux tips and tricks - how to work with shell commands
• Running simulations in the cloud - just in case Gunvor is not your friend, you might want to consider run heavy analyses somewhere
• Available software at SU and SRC
• Technical documentation - about external servers
• Bibliometric analysis - different tools and strategies
