April 13, 2015: If your students have ever heard of IBM’s “Watson” supercomputer, they might be interested to read the article in CIO Magazine yesterday (as of this writing). IBM is planning to incorporate patient data from wearers of Apple’s new watch. Ask students to read http://www.cio.com/article/2909593/ibms-watson-health-division-will-incorporate-patient-data-from-apple.html and answer the following:

(1) What will IBM do with that data? That is, what are the benefits of the data?

(2) Can you see any drawbacks of allowing Watson to process the data?

(3) What connections to other companies are there in this project? Why can’t Watson do it all “him”self?

    You are in the Metro Center station in Washington DC. A person carrying a bag opens up the bag and pulls out a glass jar filled with a powder (it is anthrax but you don’t know it). He drops the jar on the concrete just as a metro train is pulling in. The jar breaks and the powder is blow into the station by the wind current created by the metro train. What can you do?

    (a) Build a multiple regression model for the purposes of predicting calories, using all the other variables as the predictors.

    (b) Which of the predictors probably does not belong in the model? Explain how you know this. What might be your next step after viewing these results? (Hint: use t-test.)

    (c) Suppose we omit cholesterol from the model and rerun the regression. Explain what will happen to the value of R^2.

    (d) Which predictor is negatively associated with the response? Explain how you know this. (Hint: Plot and calculate correlation coefficients)

    (e) Build a multiple regression model for the purposes of predicting calories, using the forward selection method.

    (f) Build a multiple regression model for the purposes of predicting calories, using the backward elimination method.

    (g) Build a multiple regression model for the purposes of predicting calories, using the stepwise variable selection procedure.

    (h) Apply the best subsets procedure, and compare against the previous methods. (15 points)

    (i) Perform all possible regressions. Did the variable selection algorithms find the best regression? (15 points)

    Below are the questions that have to be answered

    How did pre-modern human societies manage and control diversity? “Diversity” here can either signify [1] socio-economic diversity, such as the existence of the rich and poor within the same city; [2] ethno-linguistic and/or religious diversity as was the case with numerous regions of the world that witnessed large scale population movements in antiquity; or even [3] social stratification within the same household, where gender roles were assigned by social convention and often strictly enforced by especially older men and women. You must answer the question using at least one of the primary sources you have read from weeks 2-5.

    I attached the the week 2 and 5 reading.

      • Is the research design consistent with the purpose and hypothesis presented in the introduction?
      • Are the independent variables clearly defined so that they can be replicated using the information provided in the procedures section?

    • Evaluate the Discussion Section.
      • Do the researchers clearly restate the purpose and research questions?
      • Do the researchers clearly discuss the implications of the findings and how they relate to theories, other findings, and actual practice?
