This workshop will introduce Generalized Additive Models (GAMs), which allow one to fit models that are complex and nonlinear but easily interpretable, unlike many “black-box” machine learning models.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to fit GAMs in R using the mgcv package and understand the advantages of GAMs over GLMs and LMs.
Alex Halonen will defend their thesis.
This session will introduce participants to non-parametric tests, which are useful when data distributions do not meet the assumptions of parametric tests. Attendees will learn to compare the adaptability of these tests with different data distributions and to visualize their operation.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to choose and apply the appropriate non-parametric tests for their data, visualize the operation of these tests, and understand the challenges of multiple testing with non-parametric methods.

This session will introduce participants to the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), a statistical method used for comparing the means of three or more groups. The concept of blocking will also be introduced to reduce noise and isolate sources of variation.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to use ANOVA for multi-treatment analysis, implement blocking in experimental design, calculate the F statistic for assessing significance, and appreciate how blocking can improve the efficiency of a study.
