• Why are the parameter estimates I see in JMP® different from the GLM procedure in SAS®?

  Differences between SAS^® and JMP^® are due to different parameterizations and algorithms used to calculate the statistics. The JMP algorithm is computationally more efficient, but PROC GLM is more general. Both are correct, just different. To answer any comparison questions, refer to the Nominal Factors section in the JMP Fitting Linear Models documentation and help.   [Previously JMP Note 37920]

• What is the difference between Minimum and Default Number of Runs in the Custom Design Platform in JMP®?

  When using the Custom Design platform in JMP, after you define the factors in your design, you may specify the model terms of interest (for example main effects, interactions or power effects). Then, in the Design Generation dialog, the number of runs is suggested and calculated according to the specified model. The minimum number of runs corresponds to a saturated design, which means there are as...

• What is the difference between a response surface design generated using the Custom Design platform as compared to the Response Surface platform?

  The Custom Design platform generates D-Optimal and I-Optimal designs. While the Response Surface platform generates the Classical Response Surface Designs. Response Surface designs such as Box-Behnken, CCD are not generally optimal. By default in the Custom Design platform if you create a Response Surface design it is referred to as an I-Optimal Response Surface Design.   [Previously JMP Note 4896...

• My Nonlinear model is not converging. Why?

  Convergence might not be attained under certain conditions. These may include the following: incorrect specification of the modelpoor initial starting valuesan over-defined modelinsufficient data Nonlinear models are very sensitive to initial estimates. If these values are not good, the model might not converge. Also, your data might not support the number of parameters you are trying to estimate....

• JMP® 15 Fitted Distribution results might differ from results in previous versions of JMP

  The JMP 15 Distribution platform was modernized to have distributional fitters that match what is available in the Generalized Regression platform. Differences in computational methods can result in differences in reported confidence intervals, the best fitting distribution, and so on, between JMP 15 and earlier versions of JMP. In addition to some newly available distribution fits, additional fea...

• DOE script may not produce the same design each time it is run

  Most designs created using the DOE platforms create a script, If the script is saved to the design's data table it is called DOE Dialog. A DOE script is expected to produce the same design each time it is run, and for some design types, this script contains a random seed and/or a number of starts. However, as modifications are made to JMP to improve efficiency in the algorithms used in design cons...

• Why does JMP® center polynomials in models by default?

  Centering polynomials helps to reduce the collinearity in a model that has interaction and higher order terms. If you do not use centered polynomials, the parameters on lower–order terms are less meaningful. The benefit of centered polynomials is that they make the test for the main effect independent of the test for the squared term. If you use the center polynomials option, the parameter estimat...

  Yes, you can build a model with higher order terms without centering those terms. To turn off polynomial centering, click on the menu next to Model Specification in the Fit Model dialog and select Center Polynomials. This will remove the check mark and turn off the option.   [Previously JMP Note 37927]

• When I run my model through the Fit Model platform, I see "LostDFs" in the Effect Test report and "Biased" and "Zeroed" parameter estimates. Why?

  These notes usually indicate one or more linear dependencies in the design. That is, a linear combination of one or more factors can exactly duplicate another factor's values. Singularity Details are shown at the top of the results window. Examining these details should assist in determining which factors are involved in the linear dependencies. You can then adjust the model by removing factors to...
