Generating synthetic data with the synthpop package for R

This workshop will provide participants with an introduction to synthetic data concepts and methods. A key focus will be on practical issues of generating and analysing synthetic data using the R package synthpop.

Basic level of knowledge of R is required. Participants not familiar with R are strongly encouraged to learn the basics from the free textbook Introductory Statistics with R by Dalgaard (Chapter 1-2), or other online resources.

Participants will need to bring their own laptops with the latest version of R and RStudio installed.
