Exploring F@H Stats with My Friend: The Hidden Insights

In summary, "Exploring F@H Stats with My Friend: Unlocking the Hidden Insights" is a collaborative effort between friends to dive deeper into the data and statistics of the Folding@home project. Through their exploration, they uncover valuable insights and patterns, shedding light on the impact and potential of this distributed computing platform in the fight against diseases. By utilizing their combined skills and knowledge, they are able to make meaningful contributions to the project and further their understanding of its capabilities. This project serves as an example of the power of teamwork and the endless possibilities that can be unlocked through collaboration.

My friend and I have begun work on a folding at home statistics site.

I'm going to break F@H down for you all real quick.
Every 3 hours a Team submits more points and "Units" to their total points and Unit count. (The unit is where the points come from). So every 3 hours Point and Unit totals grow for each unique team.
A team consists of Users who submits the points and units that a team unites under one ID.
That is to say, User 1 and User 2 submit 4 units each to Team 1 and then Team 1 logs 8 Units.


If you want more details as to what F@H is: http://folding.stanford.edu/

There are a few stat sites already in existence and they can be found here:

http://kakaostats.com/

Most of the stat sites that I know track very basic statistics such as average daily submission amount per team/user. Or things such as how much an individual is expected to have in a year.

It's all pretty basic, and you can see more on the sites I provided.

So what I'm hoping you all can provide me with is really cool ideas on some stuff my friend and I can do with these stats. I have taken only an intro. stat class which has yielded a few ideas we might use but I haven't, nor has my friend, taken any advanced stat classes. Albiet, my friend, who happens to be doing all the back-end "math coding" is a veritable math whiz. If you can just name some advanced stat topics and what it would yield I'm sure he could look it up and code some stuff to go on the site.

So please don't hold back your recommendations.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I'm not asking for how to do it but just names of topics in the area.

A good start would be to find interesting ways to visualize various aspects of the data (rather than just a table of numbers).
