Hi, my name is Evan McCorkle. I'm a developer with JMP, and I'm here today to talk to you about a new feature in JMP version 17 called JMP Search. It's available under the Help menu. There's Search JMP, and there's accelerator key, CTRL+ comma here. The idea behind this feature is to help you, whether you're a new user of JMP or an experienced user of JMP, to find features within JMP that will help you to get your job done.
I'm going to go through this demo today using one of our sample data tables you may have seen before, Big Class. We're not going to focus on any of the actual statistical analysis or anything like that. I'm just going to focus on using JMP search to find different features within JMP to use on that table.
I can start by opening JMP search and you get a dialog here. I'm going to type Big Class. I misspelled it, but that's okay. It knows what I meant. I see results here in a details pane over here. I'm going to go ahead and click on that and bring open the data table. From here, we can do a lot of data table cleanup, data table manipulation. For instance, what if I wanted to exclude all the men in this table? I can click on this and I don't quite remember where this feature is, but it's something about finding matches or something like that.
I can bring that up by the accelerator key, CTRL+ comma, I can type Matches and look through the results here. I see under the rows or triangle, Row Selection, Select Matching Cells. I think that's what I want. I could learn more by looking at the topic help here, but I think I just want to run it. I could run through the Show Me dialog there or Show Me button there, or I can just double click on this item and I see a guided path down to that item, just like if I were to open the Rows red triangle menu.
I've selected all the men and now I can come over here and hide and exclude them. Now let's say I'm going to expand this table. I'm going to change this from 40 rows to millions of rows. I might want to turn compression on to do that. I can go open search and type in Compression and I see a couple of options here. One under the red triangle for the table, this one, I see Compressed File When Saved and then under Utilities, Compressed Select Columns.
Let's do that under utilities, Compressed Select Columns. If we look at that, we see it's turned age, which is my selected column into a one by integer compressed column. We don't need to reopen the search because I remember under this red triangle, there's that compression option. I'm going to go ahead and bring these back. From the data table, we can do other things like splitting and stacking, and joining, and recoding column names, etc. But of course JMP is more than just data tables. We also have statistical analysis and statistical platforms. Let's look at some of that.
I can come into here and I can type Anova. There's a couple of options here, but I want to look at these first two. One, there's a tutorial, and I might want to go through that a little bit later, but not now.
Under Analyze Fit Y by X, under One way, there's Means/Anova . If I look at this diamond here, I can see, when I hit Go, it's going to launch the platform launcher dialog, and it's going to ask me to put columns into Y and X, and turn knobs and flip switches, and depending on the data used and the options chosen, this Means/ Anova may not be available to me, or it might be.
In particular, if we look here, it says this option is only available when X has more than two levels, but I think that's going to be okay. Let's hit Go. It brings up in the Fit Y by X dialog, I want to do height by age. We see one way here, that's just what I wanted. Let me say okay, and we have age has more than two levels, so I can bring back open the search and search again for that. I see, it's just right under the red triangle, second one down, we can turn that on.
Then I want to do a letters report. I can't really remember connecting, connected... Something about letters. Let's look at that.
I see a couple options with Fit Model, and I see one under One way, and I'm already in One way. It would be great if this is appropriate to use Oneway to do this. It's not available to me right now, but I see it's under One way Means Comparisons, and I see lots of different techniques in here with Student's t and Tukey. Let's just look at that under Compare Means, student's T. I'm thinking if I do this, and then from here we look at letters again, we can see under the outline for One way, and then under the outline for Means Comparison, we have a red triangle and Connecting Letters Report is actually already on.
If we go down, we can see it under this Means Comparison. I've already got what I wanted. We talked about data tables. This is some statistical platforms, some statistical analysis. Now let's talk about some visualization. I go back to the table and I'm actually going to go down and look at this Fit Polynomial on Bivariate. I want to do height by weight, bring up in Bivariate here and search for Quadratic again.
I see this red triangle entry. This is another red triangle entry, but I'm going to look at this one. Do a Quadratic Fit. I'm not quite sure about that fit, but I know I don't like the red, so let's change it to something else. Let's change it to blue. Under that red triangle there, we can change the line color , I'm going to change it to a blue. I can bring this up and now I want a little more in the visualization here.
Let's look at the Nonparametric Density and turn that on. That's a couple options in terms of visualization in this frame within Bivariate, but it's also available in other platforms and in other situations within JMP. To go back to the table here, I want to call a couple of things out. When I showed this, I typed matches, but we got results for matching and matched, and that's because we are doing stemming on the search query and on all the content within JMP.
This search will work no matter what your display language is within JMP. It'll work in English and French, and Italian, and German, and Spanish, and Japanese, and Korean, and simplified Chinese.
No matter what your display language is in JMP, you can search in that language and then get results here in that language that are localized for you, as well as in the details pane over here and navigate in the same way that I did in English. The technology that we're using to turn matches into results for matching and matched is also available for you to use for yourself in your your own data tables through Analyze Text Explorer.
Within Text Explorer, if you have a bunch of text data to look at, you can go and tell it what language the column is in and what stemming you want and what tokenization you want. JMP will do that same collapsing of different conjugation of words and things like that into a single form. That same technology is the technology that we're using within JMP search to help it to work in whatever display language you happen to use JMP in.
With that, we've gone through JMP search for data tables, statistical tests, and visualization. Again, I hope that JMP search will help you if you're a new user or an experienced user, to either find new things or re-find things that you knew about but you maybe forgot where they were, and to use JMP to help you to get your job done quickly and easily.
Again, that's JMP Search under Help, Search JMP, and it's available in JMP version 17. Thank you very much.
