Picking the Data Set
Look into the following sites as an example and select a data set that interests you.

4. Any other source of your choice
Register your Project Title and Dataset
• Register using this link. Project selections are on first-come basis.
http://kalathur.com/projects/cs544_a2.php
• Your project source should be different from other students. The earlier
you decide and register, the better.
Preparing the data
• Import the data set into R.
• Document the steps for the import process and any preprocessing had
to be done prior to or after the import. Any R code used in the process
should be included.
Analyzing the data
• Do the analysis as in Module3 for at least one categorical variable and at least one
numerical variable. Show appropriate plots for your data.
• Do the analysis as in Module3 for at least one set of two or more variables. Show
appropriate plots for your data.
• Pick one variable with numerical data and examine the distribution of the data.
• Draw various random samples of the data and show the applicability of the
Central Limit Theorem for this variable.
• Show how various sampling methods can be used on your data. What are your
conclusions if these samples are used instead of the whole dataset.
• Implementation of any feature(s) not mentioned in the above specification.
Presenting the Project
• You will do your project presentation with the Professor using Zoom.
• Each presentation is for at most 10 minutes. Signup sheet will be provided
later.
