biolearnr intro

Bioinformatics would be a seriously lame duck without statistics.

This is my blog about statistics, machine learning, data mining and all those sorts of things. My background is in cancer genomics, network analysis and cell signalling. I'm currently working through a series of MOOCs that are relevant to this blog (many more interesting courses and resources are mentioned on the open source data science masters' website and machinelearningmastery):
- Ian Witten's introductory WEKA course
- The Caltech/JPL data analytics course
- Bill Howe's intro to data science

Also. I'm always working through statistics and machine learning books. At the moment I'm working through Bishop's PRML, Gelman's Bayesian Data Analysis and Casella & Berger's Statistical Inference.

All the above, and a variety of bioinformatics papers, will probably end up on here. Unless it ends up like biographr, where I wrote an intro and then nothing for 8 months
