1
00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:08,350
This week, we'll be discussing
the power of visualizations

2
00:00:08,350 --> 00:00:10,950
for understanding
worldwide trends

3
00:00:10,950 --> 00:00:13,970
and for using analytics
to stop crime.

4
00:00:13,970 --> 00:00:17,310
In the first lecture, we'll
use data from the World Health

5
00:00:17,310 --> 00:00:20,120
Organization to
create visualizations

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,790
that help us understand
and communicate

7
00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:24,410
global health trends.

8
00:00:24,410 --> 00:00:28,070
In the second lecture, we'll
discuss predictive policing,

9
00:00:28,070 --> 00:00:30,810
and how police departments
across the country

10
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:35,180
are using data and analytics
to improve decision making.

11
00:00:35,180 --> 00:00:38,980
Through these examples, we'll
create visualizations in R

12
00:00:38,980 --> 00:00:42,560
that help us understand
our data and our models.

13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,530
Let's get started.
