• Survey Analysis (Cross Tabulation)

  Categorial platform provides myriad tools to tabulate and analyze multivariable categorical data, such as that which would come from surveys. Commonly referred to as cross-tabulation, these analysis methods can be used to compare responses across multiple factors and uncover relationships between categories.  Categorical Note: The results displayed in the analysis demonstrated will be easier to i...

• Principal Component Analysis

  This guide provides instructions on performing a principal component analysis (PCA). This analysis method is often used to reduce the dimensionality of a data set (i.e., fewer variables) by creating a new set of variables that are linear combinations of the original variables statistically independent of each other and that capture the most information (i.e., variation and correlation) contained i...

• Analysis of Repeated Measures (MANOVA)

  Use MANOVA (multivariate analysis of variance) for a way to analyze repeated measures data. The term repeated measures refers to data with multiple measurements taken on the same subjects, often taken over a period of time. The MANOVA platform provides tests of between and within subject effects across the repeated measurements. This example involves 16 dogs assigned to different treatment groups...

• Creating a Validation Column (Holdout Sample)

  Use to subset the data into a set used to build a model (training) and a set used to evaluate a model's predictive performance (validation). If multiple models are fit, the best performer on the validation data is often the one chosen. At times, a third set is used (test) to evaluate the chosen model's predictive performance on new data. This is considered to be a more accurate means to evaluate a...
