Exploring complex data from a case-based perspective: the COMPLEX-IT software

In this seminar, we will present our recent work which brings together, and makes accessible, traditional and machine learning cluster analysis in an easy-to-use software interface called COMPLEX-IT. We will describe how you can use COMPLEXIT to explore your data and uncover complex patterns. In addition, we will outline current plans to extend the software to include ‘quick-and-dirty’ agent-based modelling of your topic. We would love to get feedback on the tool and hear from people who might want to use it. Read more at https://www.artsciencefactory.com/complexit.html
