COMPLEX-IT is a case-based, mixed-methods platform for social inquiry into complex data/systems, designed to increase non-expert access to the tools of computational social science (i.e., cluster analysis, artificial intelligence, data visualization, data forecasting, and scenario simulation). In particular, COMPLEX-IT aids social inquiry though a heavy emphasis on learning about the complex data/system under study, which it does by (a) identifying and forecasting major and minor clusters/trends; (b) visualizing their complex causality; and (c) simulating scenarios for potential interventions. COMPLEX-IT is accessible through the web or can be run locally and is powered by R and the Shiny web framework.

COMPLEX-IT：基于案例的社会调查建模和场景模拟平台

COMPLEX-IT 是一个基于案例的混合方法平台，用于对复杂数据/系统进行社会调查，旨在增加非专家对计算社会科学工具（即聚类分析、人工智能、数据可视化、数据预测）的访问，和情景模拟）。特别是，COMPLEX-IT 通过非常强调了解所研究的复杂数据/系统来帮助社会探究，它通过 (a) 识别和预测主要和次要集群/趋势来做到这一点；(b) 将其复杂的因果关系可视化；(c) 模拟潜在干预的情景。COMPLEX-IT 可以通过 Web 访问，也可以在本地运行，并由 R 和 Shiny Web 框架提供支持。
