#DataVisualisation
When you create plots in R, it is very possible to end up with an image that is very granular or angular; making it difficult to properly isolate the trend showing up in the data. Smoothing helps you highlight the trend so you can see it clearly and then draw inferences and recommendations based on the story the data is telling. There is more than one way to smooth your plots
Generalised Additive Model smoothing (also known as GAM smoothing) is largely preferred when working with plots that have a large number of points#dataanalytics #R #autistictechie #smoothing
