Project Information

The purpose of this study is to provide a full understanding of usage patterns for SMU Li Ka Shing (LKS) Library. By analyzing individual’s preferred time and visiting frequency, this study seeks to draw relationship between students’ demographic like school, degree and their visiting behaviour. The dataset consists of 481,648 entries generated by 8241 unique users. This study uses Tableau to get exploratory insights and JMP to test for statistical validity. R is used to automate data preparation process.

The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests the hypothesis of equal means of a number of data. While this is not common, there are a number of advantages of such an approach, including greater statistical power due to increased precision, a simpler and more informative interpretation of the results. The objective of our project is to apply statistical analysis to prove the insights drawn by the data visualization.
