SOCR Data

SOCR Educational Materials - SOCR Data

The links below contain a number of datasets that may be used for demonstration purposes in probability and statistics education. There are two types of data - simulated (computer-generated using random sampling) and observed (research, observationally or experimentally acquired).

SOCR Data

Simulated data

The SOCR resources provide a number of mechanisms to simulate data using computer random-number generators. Here are some of the most commonly used SOCR generators of simulated data:

• SOCR Experiments - each experiment reports random outcomes, sample and population distributions and summary statistics.
• SOCR random-number generator - enables sampling of any size from any of the SOCR Distributions.
• SOCR Analyses - all of the SOCR analyses allow random sampling from various populations appropriate for the user-specified analysis.

Machine Interfaces to Downloading SOCR Data

In addition to human interactions with the SOCR Data, we provide several machine interfaces to consume and process these data.

• SOCR Data can be copy pasted directly from the Wiki HTML pages into any of the SOCR Java applets.
• SOCR Analytical Toolbox (SOCRAT) provides a scalable web platform for in-browser applications for interactive data analysis and visualization.
• SOCR Data can also be loaded into an R computational environment automatically using the protocol below illustrated with the case of a Parkinson's Disease dataset:

library(rvest)
# Loading required package: xml2

wiki_url <- read_html("http://wiki.socr.umich.edu/index.php/SOCR_Data_PD_BiomedBigMetadata")
html_nodes(wiki_url, "#content")

pd_data <- html_table(html_nodes(wiki_url,"table")\([[1]]\))
head(pd_data); summary(pd_data)
