October Austin UserRs Group Meetup: HTML/CSS Reports & Text Mining/NLP in R

HTML/CSS Report building in R

Jesse Sampson (http://www.linkedin.com/in/jessetsampson)

Jesse will present a follow-up to David P's fun and informative talk on reporting using Brew and Knitr, focusing this time on HTML/CSS output instead of TeX. The presentation will also cover tools such as the googleVis package that now allow useRs to move seamlessly from data to well-realized, interactive web content.

Survey of Text Mining / NLP in R

Ike Okonkwo (http://www.linkedin.com/pub/ike-okonkwo/6/397/b83)

Ike will be going over the different text mining facilities / packages in R with detailed examples. He will also cover building a simple text classifier for a sample dataset.

BEER and PIZZA will be provided so come and get to know your fellow Austin UseRs.
