Pedro Silva: Convincing IT that R packages are safe
R packages are essential tools for data science, but how reliable are they? This talk will explore methods for evaluating the quality and potential risks associated with R packages, focusing on key factors like community engagement, development activity, documentation standards, and code quality. We’ll discuss the toolset used as the standard at Jumping Rivers for validating packages with clients, offering advanced scoring methods, customizable risk thresholds, and the ability to incorporate data from external sources to deliver a more comprehensive assessment of package risks.

This week's Shiny in Production video is from Gareth Burns with "Shiny in Secondary Education". In this talk, he explores how Shiny applications can enhance the teaching of Statistics and Data Science to the next generation.

#ShinyApps #Rstats #DataScience #ShinyinProduction
Gareth Burns: Shiny in Secondary Education
The Statisticians in the Pharmaceutical Industry (PSI) Schools Outreach initiative aims at promoting data literacy and statistical concepts to the next generation of Statisticians and Data Scientists. Volunteers attend secondary schools to present from specialised workshops which are designed to be interactive, engaging and aligned to the national curriculum for different age groups. The PSI Visualisation Special Interest Group (VIS SIG) created a Shiny application to supplement an existing workshop for Asthma. This workshop aims to introduce the students to analysis of continuous data and make them think about concealing treatment assignment and consider false positive and false negative results. The application allowed electronic data capture the ability to dynamically explore their own data, re-enforcing the statistical concepts and making learning more engaging and accessible. Each school is different in terms of class size, computer resources and student abilities, therefore the application needed to be flexible to account for this...

The last of our longer talks from Shiny in Production 2024 is from Katy Morgan. In it she covers how The Government Internal Audit Agency’s data analytics team created two Shiny applications to simplify the user's experience of using generative AI.

#ShinyApps #RStats #AI #UX #ShinyInProduction
Katy Morgan: More than just a chat bot
Generative AI offers huge potential for driving creativity by suggesting new ideas and perspectives and can also improve efficiency by rapidly processing and extracting insights from large volumes of text. However, using a chatbot-style tool such as ChatGPT can be overwhelming as users have to work out, through trial and error, which questions and instructions give them the outputs they need. The Government Internal Audit Agency’s data analytics team has created two R shiny web applications, each of which simplifies the user’s experience of using generative AI by providing a user-friendly interface and implementing a set of standardised prompts. The Risk Engine walks the user through a stepwise process to explore and articulate the potential risks that might impact any given business objective. The Writing Engine enables users to analyse and generate text in several ways, including generating a draft audit report from rough notes, and summarising common themes from...
