R provides powerful opportunities to outsource everyday thought
processes in data analysis. However, adapting these mechanisms for
application-specific thought processes is expensive and difficult.
Whenever a statistician builds a plot he needs to specify the variable
name, scale transformations etc. effex supports automation of these
parameters. In particular, it supports automated visualization of
complex datasets.
You can install effex from github with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("sflippl/effex")For now, an introduction to effex can be found in my Bachelor’s
Thesis
(please note that the package has since been renamed and had been called
tectr at that stage).
The package fxVdem applies
effex to the V-Dem database.
