Manuel S González Canché Author

Manuel S. González Canché holds a tenured professorship at the University of Pennsylvania. His professional training in Computer Science, Biostatistics, Economics, and Sociology has informed his eclectic view of social issues and research. His primary methodological interests are on spatial data science, complex systems, network modeling, text classification via machine learning, and quasi-experimental or quasi-causal design focused on policy-related issues. Recently, he has been working on developing low- and no-code, cost-free, and open-access software that aims to democratize access to data science tools. In addition to the dozens of low-code tools included in this book, a recent example of no-code software can be found at Expert Systems with Applications, where an open-access software is offered to help qualitative, mixed-methods, and even quantitative researchers close open-ended responses.
