Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Fast and Numerically Stable Statistical Analysis Utilities

Build Status Coverage Status Inline docs dependencies Status devDependencies Status Gitter

Perform fast and numerically stable statistical analysis using wink-statistics. It can handle real-time stream of data and can incrementally compute required statistic that usually would take more than one pass over the data as in standard deviation or simple linear regression.

Functions

  1. Boxplot
  2. Covariance
  3. Difference with definable lag
  4. Five Number Summary
  5. Frequency Table
  6. Histogram
  7. Median Absolute Deviation (MAD)
  8. Maximum
  9. Mean
  10. Median
  11. Minimum
  12. Numerically stable sum
  13. Percentile
  14. Probability computation & CI from successes count
  15. Probability estimates aggregation
  16. Simple Linear Regression
  17. Standard Deviation
  18. Summary statistics

Installation

Use npm to install:

npm install wink-statistics --save

Getting Started

Handling Streams

Here is an example of computing slope, intercept and r2 etc. from a stream of (x, y) data in real-time:

// Load wink-statistics.
var stats = require( 'wink-statistics' );
// Instantiate streaming simple linear regression
var regression = stats.streaming.simpleLinearRegression();
// Following would be ideally placed within a stream of data:
regression.compute( 10, 80 );
regression.compute( 15, 75 );
regression.compute( 16, 65 );
regression.compute( 18, 50 );
regression.compute( 21, 45 );
regression.compute( 30, 30 );
regression.compute( 36, 18 );
regression.compute( 40, 9 );
// Use result() method to access the outcome in real time.
regression.result();
// returns { slope: -2.3621,
//   intercept: 101.4188,
//   r: -0.9766,
//   r2: 0.9537,
//   se: 5.624,
//   size: 8
// }

Handling data array

The functions under the data name space require data in an array. Here is an example of boxplot analysis:

var boxplot = stats.data.boxplot;
var data = [
  -12, 14, 14, 14, 16, 18, 20, 20, 21, 23, 27, 27, 27, 29, 31,
  31, 32, 32, 34, 36, 40, 40, 40, 40, 40, 42, 51, 56, 60, 88
];

boxplot( data );
// returns {
//   min: -12, q1: 20, median: 31, q3: 40, max: 88,
//   iqr: 20, range: 100, size: 30,
//   leftOutliers: { begin: 0, end: 0, count: 1, fence: 14 },
//   rightOutliers: { begin: 29, end: 29, count: 1, fence: 60 },
//   leftNotch: 25.230655727612252,
//   rightNotch: 36.76934427238775
// }

wink-stats can handle data in different formats to avoid pre-processing. For example, you can compute median from the array of objects containing value:

var median = stats.data.median;
var data =  [
  { value: 1 },
  { value: 1 },
  { value: 2 },
  { value: 2 },
  { value: 3 },
  { value: 3 },
  { value: 4 },
  { value: 4 }
];
// Use key name — `value` as the `accessor`
median( data, 'value' );
// returns 2.5

It even supports passing functions as accessors to handle even more complex data structures.
