For our first event after the summer we will welcome our own **Laura Vana-Gür** who will talk about how we can use random projection for regression analysis in R using the SPAR package (https://github.com/RomanParzer/SPAR).
+
+**Abstract**:
+Random projection is a powerful and important tool for dimensionality reduction where a set of high-dimensional points is linearly mapped onto a lower dimension. Random projection matrices can be rapidly generated and are oblivious to the data distribution, maintain interpretability and are equipped with theoretical guarantees on preserving the geometry of the original space with a high probability. When employed in a supervised setting, they can provide a significant reduction in computational cost. However, they tend to overfit so it is desirable to first eliminate the unimportant predictors and then perform the random projection and estimate the model on the space of the reduced (i.e., projected) predictors. Moreover, to reduce the uncertainty from the random projection, ensembles can be built. In this work we propose an R package which implements a variety of random projection and screening tools for regression in high-dimensional settings. The functionality of the package is presented using simulated and real data examples.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ca href='https://www.meetup.com/rladies-vienna/events/303956873' target='_blank'\u003e\u003cbutton class='btn btn-primary'\u003eEvent page\u003c/button\u003e\u003c/center\u003e\u003c/a\u003e`,date:"2024-10-29",description:`We hope you have all had a great summer, and are now ready to meet fellow R-Ladies and learn new things again!

 O Shiny é um framework para criar aplicativos web de maneira fácil usando código R, sem precisar de qualquer conhecimento de HTML, CSS ou JavaScript. Por outro lado, o Shiny possui componentes de interface de usuário que podem ser facilmente personalizadas ou estendidas, e seu servidor usa programação reativa para permitir que você crie qualquer tipo de lógica de back-end que desejar. Atualmente, o Shiny é usado em quase tantos nichos e indústrias quanto o próprio R. Na academia é usado como um meio chamativo para exibir novos resultados, métodos ou modelos estatísticos e em empresas para configurar painéis de métricas em tempo real que incorporam análises avançadas. Este minicurso foi projetado para levá-lo de não saber nada sobre Shiny para ser capaz de construir dashboards, onde você será capaz de expor seus resultados de maneira interativa que ainda são fáceis de manter e de alto desempenho.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ca href='https://www.meetup.com/rladies-niteroi/events/303668355' target='_blank'\u003e\u003cbutton class='btn btn-primary'\u003eEvent page\u003c/button\u003e\u003c/center\u003e\u003c/a\u003e`,date:"2024-10-16",description:`Vagas Limitadas!
