Overview
Explore the concept of data analysis using established scientific methods combined with the powerful Clojure language
Master Naive Bayesian Classification, Benford's Law, and much more in Clojure
Learn with the help of examples drawn from exciting, real-world data
In Detail
Clojure is a Lisp dialect built on top of the Java Virtual Machine. As data increasingly invades more and more parts of our lives, we continually need more tools to deal with it effectively. Data can be organized effectively using Clojure data tools.
Mastering Clojure Data Analysis teaches you how to analyze and visualize complex datasets. With this book, you'll learn how to perform data analysis using established scientific methods with the modern, powerful Clojure programming language with the help of exciting examples drawn from real-world data. This will help you get to grips with advanced topics such as network analysis, the characteristics of social networks, applying topic modeling to get a handle on unstructured textual data, and GIS analysis to apply geospatial techniques to your data analysis problems.
With this guide, you'll learn how to leverage the power and flexibility of Clojure to dig into your data and access the insights it hides.
