Hi, I’m Troy. I build open-source tools in R. My agent harness, corteza, scored 98.6% on ARC-AGI-3’s 25 public games with Claude Opus 5 at xhigh, completing all 183 levels. The harness writes and reuses functions in a persistent R workspace. Functions and data survive conversation compaction. I wrote up the results, failures, and fixes: https://cornball.ai/posts/corteza-arc-agi-3/ #Introduction #rstats #AI

In my "Introduction to Data Analysis in R for Linguists" seminar (based on my textbook: https://elenlefoll.github.io/RstatsTextbook/) I spend a lot of time on project management, file naming conventions, file formats, and reproducible workflows using Quarto. Some might consider it a waste of time because it means I have less time for other things (sorry ANOVAS, you're out!). However, this latest round of term papers has, once again, proven that this is well-invested time: my students are delivering fully reproducible term papers in Quarto format and, because they have a firm grasp of the basics, those that are motivated learn far more complex things than what I've taught them to complete really quite ambitious projects. Today's heartwarming quote from a [female] M.A. student: "I ended up having a lot of fun getting into the more technical, coding-heavy side of things, which surprised me! So thank you for that." And many go on to use R and Quarto for their MA theses! 🥰 #Quarto #RStats #linguistics #HigherEd

☝️ What happens when you treat terrain morphometry like satellite bands? ⚙️ An experimental RGB composite of an industrial micro-catchment in Kryvyi Rih, synthesized directly from DEM hydro-conditioned derivatives: 🔹 Red: Channel Network Distance (hydraulic connectivity) 🔹 Green: Total Catchment Area / Flow Accumulation (upscale contributing mass) 🔹 Blue: LS-Factor / Slope Length-Steepness (RUSLE physical erosion capacity). ⚙️ The color mixing immediately separates the basin into physical domains: 🔹 Bright magenta/neon ribbons: Critical erosion and transport vectors where steep slope length converges with active channel flow. 🔹 Vibrant green zones: Planar accumulation sectors and potential geochemical sedimentation traps. 🔹 Dark interfluves: Geomorphologically stable plateau surfaces. #Geomorphometry #Hydrology #SpatialData #RStats #SAGAGIS #TerrainAnalysis #DEM #EnvironmentalGeology #GIS #DataVisualization #InhuletsRiver

⚠️ Why standard GIS routing (D8, Sink Fill) fails in complex mining regions: 300m open pits become fake "lakes", and underground river tunnels are completely ignored. To map surface drainage across central Kryvyi Rih, I built a custom DEM hydro-conditioning pipeline: 🔹 Selective sink filtering (true pits vs DEM noise) 🔹 Subsurface conduit burn-in (diversion tunnels) 🔹 Closed micro-catchment delineation Crucial for geochemical transport & geotechnical risks. 🛠️ #RStats (#terra, #Rsagacmd), #QGIS, #SAGAGIS #GIS #Hydrology #HydroEnforcement #FOSSGIS #Mining #Geospatial #KryvyiRih #DigitalTerrainAnalysis

🛠 What does an end-to-end open-source stack look like for an independent hydrogeochemical monograph? Doing full-cycle research—from thermodynamic calculations to print-ready LaTeX typesetting—requires a synchronized toolkit. Here is the exact stack: 🧪 Thermodynamics & Analytics: • #PHREEQC 3.7.3 for aqueous speciation&equilibrium modeling. • #Rstats Stack: RedModRphree, ggtern, sf/terra, tidyverse (ETL). 🗺 GIS & Literature Search: • #QGIS for spatial alignment & cartography. • #Recoll for local full-text search across reference databases. 📚 Typesetting & Reproducibility: • #LaTeX2e + #TeXStudio + #JabRef for typography & #BibTeX references. • xtable for automated R-to-LaTeX data exporting. • #Debian Linux as a main engine. 💡 Takeaway: Zero proprietary software licenses needed. Complete reproducibility from raw analytical data to a print-ready PDF. 🔗 The published version of monoghraph is here: https://zenodo.org/records/20709306 #Hydrogeology #Geochemistry #LaTeX #GIS #OpenScience #DataScience #SvystunovaGully

#rstats might be the wrong place for this but I'll ask anyways. Would creating an R package (with an acompanying publication) for the analysis and research of an underdeveloped medical technology be a good masters thesis project? I've worked on a few research projects related to a specific lung measurement technology which has little to no R support so a lot of analysis I've had to program on my own. There's also very few resources on what statistics are well suited to the tech. Boosts welcome

📉 Comparing the Solid-to-Tree Ratio with the Land Surface Temperature (LST) data obtained in the previous phase of the study allows for a visual assessment of the relationship between surface sealing and summer surface heating across Calgary’s residential communities. 🔥 The plot reveals a strong pattern for the vast majority of communities: a sharp increase in temperature occurs within the ratio range of 0 to 5. The Downtown Commercial Core stands out as a distinct outlier, where low LST values are driven by deep geometric shading from high-rise buildings. Additionally, neighborhoods such as Manchester, Seton, Redstone, Beltline, and Rangeview, among a few others, slightly diverge from the main trend. 📊 Full methodology and additional charts via the link:👇 https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #Calgary #OpenData #UrbanHeat #DataScience #ClimateResilience #YYC #Geoscience #CityPlanning #RemoteSensing #RStats #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary

Which Calgary neighborhoods are best built to withstand summer heatwaves? 🌳☀️ To measure structural climate resilience across the city, I conducted a spatial analysis of 193 established residential communities, calculating the Solid-to-Tree Ratio—comparing bare artificial surfaces (asphalt, concrete, rooftops) directly against total tree canopy area. Here are the Top 10 most shade-rich and climate-resilient communities in Calgary: 🟢 Queens Park Village — 0.3 (Just 0.3 ha of hard surface for every 1 ha of canopy!) 🟢 Discovery Ridge — 0.5 🟢 Roxboro — 0.5 🟢 Wildwood — 0.6 🟢 Rideau Park — 0.7 🟢 Medicine Hill — 0.8 🟢 Upper Mount Royal — 0.8 🟢 Crestmont — 0.9 🟢 Elbow Park — 0.9 🟢 Shaganappi — 0.9 👇 The full interactive dataset and study are here: https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #UrbanAnalytics #GeospatialData #RemoteSensing #GIS #UrbanForestry #CityPlanning #Calgary #DataScience #Microclimate #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary #RStats #FOSSGIS

🔥 Top 10 Calgary Communities with the Highest "Shade Deficit" To measure structural heat risks, I calculated the Solid-to-Tree Ratio—the ratio of bare artificial surfaces (asphalt, concrete, roofs) to total tree canopy area. A higher ratio means more heat-retaining concrete and less natural cooling. Here are the 10 most shade-deficient residential communities in Calgary: 🔹 Downtown Commercial Core — 56.2 (56.2 ha of hard surfaces for every 1 ha of trees) 🔹 Beltline — 24.6 🔹 Redstone — 23.8 🔹 Seton — 20.8 🔹 Manchester — 17.7 🔹 Rangeview — 16.8 🔹 Symons Valley Ranch — 16.0 🔹 Lower Mount Royal — 13.9 🔹 Country Hills Village — 13.2 🔹 Martindale — 12.4 An interactive lookup table featuring area metrics and ratios for all 193 established Calgary residential communities is available via the link: https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #YYC #Calgary #CalgaryRealEstate #UrbanForestry #CityPlanning #RemoteSensing #YycLiving #GreennessOfCalgary #MachineLearning #RStats #Alberta #Canada

🌳 Is Calgary actually as green as it looks? While open lawns (28.6% citywide) give Calgary a visual "green appearance", dry summer conditions quickly strip unirrigated grass of its cooling capacity. Meanwhile, true cooling infrastructure — dense and sparse tree canopy — accounts for only ~17%. To quantify structural heat risks, I introduced the Solid-to-Tree Ratio index across 193 residential communities: 🔹 Critical Deficit: Downtown Core (56.2) and Beltline (24.6), where hard surfaces outnumber tree canopy by tens of times. 🔹 Suburban Pressure: New communities like Redstone (23.8) and Seton (20.8) feature high-density lots with minimal mature shade. 🔹 Ecological Buffers: River valley communities like Discovery Ridge (0.5) and Wildwood (0.6), where canopy exceeds concrete. 👇 Link to the full study and interactive dataset: https://www.datastory.org.ua/calgarys-microclimatic-anatomy-what-lies-beneath-the-citys-green-appearance/ #Calgary #YYC #DataScience #GIS #RStats #RemoteSensing #UrbanHeat #DataViz #SpatialAnalysis #MachineLearning #GreennessOfCalgary #FOSSGIS #Alberta #Canada
