JMP Wish List

  What inspired this wish list request? JMP does not seem to have a built-in support for zero-inflated models?    What is the improvement you would like to see? Possibility to fit zero-inflated model in JMP   Why is this idea important? It occurs quite often that the response is zero-inflated. Zero-inflated models are used when the response variable has a large number of zero values and a continuous, non-negative distribution for the non-zero values. Zero-inflated models combine two separate models: one for predicting the probability of a zero outcome, and another for predicting the non-zero values.     ... View more

Now I have to calculate measures of association when fitting a Nominal Logistic Model by hand(Fit Model, module). But they are in the Fit Y by X model. Fit Model allows more flexibility and more independent variables.   Would it be possible to have these measures of associations that are now in the Fit Y by X routine for nominal data, also included as far as possible in the Fit Model Routine if you run a Nominal Logistic Fit on Nominal data.   That would be very helpful and insightful.  If possible also add the Contingency coefficient and Cohen’s omega. ...

What inspired this wish list request? I analyzed the data in a split-plot design and in the post-hoc test (LSMeans Differences Student's t) the levels by default were arranged according to the least Sq mean. I tried to sort them based on levels and for individual tables; I got success. But I want to know how we can change these settings (sort by levels) by default for all analyses.      What is the improvement you would like to see? Here is an example of how to do the sorting using JSL Names Default To Here( 1 ); dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Drug.jmp" ); obj = Fit Model( Y( :y ), Effects( :Drug, :x ), Personality( Standard Least Squares ), Emphasis( Effect Leverage ) ); myobj = obj << Run( :Drug << {LSMeans Student's t( .05, Connecting Letters Report( 1 ) )} ); objr = obj << report; Report(myobj)["Response y","Drug","LSMeans Differences Student's t",TableBox(1)] << sort by column( "Level", ascending = 1); this is a possible solution with JSL but again this is time consuming. therefore preferences setting to have the table sorted by level automatically after the post-hoc analysis   Why is this idea important?            ...

What inspired this wish list request?  If a user selects rows in a data table, the corresponding entries in a Tabulate platform are highlighted. This interactivity is very useful - it's similar to the highlighting of data points in a plot when points in another plot are selected. Unfortunately, in an exported HTML file, the entries are not highlighted.   What is the improvement you would like to see?  Please implement the row highlighting for Tabulate also for interactive HTML files.   Why is this idea important?  Competitor Software provides interactive highlighting for tables - not just for Plots. ...

I am using the workflow builder to automate a data visualization. In this process, I am importing a long list of spec. limits through the Manage Limits platform, but the "Save to Column Properties" option is not captured by the Enhanced Log and thus not recorded by the workflow builder either.   Is it possible to make the Enhanced Log record the steps "Load from Limits Table" and "Save to Column Properties" in the manage spec. limits platform? ...

I am building a dashboard and recording the steps with the workflow builder. I would love to have the possibility to save the script for creating the dashboard to the workflow. Since the creation of a Dashboard is not captured in the Enhanced Log, I suspect this is why there is no option in the Dashboard window to export a dashboard as a Workflow?          ...

What inspired this wish list request?    I have some data that i'm trying to fit a non-linear formula to (in this case a power law), but i have variants generated at different process conditions, so there are multiple variables (in this case 2). Ideally i'd like to be able to generate an equation capable of predicting the outcome (y variable) as a function of the x variable and another 'process setting' variable. The graphs look like this when performing the non-linear regression, using the 'grouping' function:   I'd love if the software were capable of 'parameterising' the 'legend' variable - ie to be able to predict the y-value based on the current x-value and the current legend value. At the moment it just groups them, but this isn't as useful as it could be...   What is the improvement you would like to see?    I'd love if the software were capable of 'parameterising' the 'legend' variable - ie to be able to predict the y-value based on the current x-value and the current legend value. At the moment it just groups them, but this isn't as useful as it could be...   Why is this idea important?    In engineering where i work there are numerous times where i'm faced with non-linear trends and data, where i don't know the underlying physics or the equations of the curves. It would be a huge advantage to be able to perform a 'multiple non-linear regression' on such data to be able to extract a predictive or descriptive capability.    ... View more

What inspired this wish list request?  See the attached screenshot No. 1. The table has two Nominal Columns, "Passenger Class" and "Sex", as Grouping Columns. I may feel like seeing the total number of rows across "Passenger Class" groups, and check "Add Aggregate Statistics." Then I will have "All" both in "Passenger Class" and "Sex", and the table looks miserably cluttered.   What is the improvement you would like to see?  In this case, I would like to have summary statistics only for "Passenger Class", but not for "Sex". In general terms, I would like to have "Aggregate Statistics" for specific Grouping Columns.   Why is this idea important?  Sometimes we need some summary statistics while keeping the table simple and clean.   ...

According to Ph. Eur. 5.3 (Statistical analysis), confidence intervals for the relative potencies (REP) may be estimated for parallel line (paragraph 3.2.5), slope-ratio (paragraph 3.3.5) and sigmoid curves. For the parallel line model, a standard error (SE) value can be obtained for the REP values, but not a 95% confidence limit. Would it be possible to also obtain those values? Additionally, how can REP along with their SE or Confidence limits be calculated using the slope-ratio model?     ... View more

Hello,   Can Nonlinear be enhanced to provide confidence intervals around the parameter values and a measure such as sigma (as is provided for Fit Parametric Survival) and R^2 (I know R^2 may have limited / restricted applicability so sigma might be better). This is available in competitor tools. Regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   In Association Analysis, lift (S[Rule]/S[Consequent]) is a measure of statistical significance. This depends on the size of the dataset. Instead of, or as an alternative to, requiring a fixed min. value of lift in the AA dialog, it would be helpful to allow the user to set the alpha value and calculate the statistically significant value of lift based on the size of the dataset.   Regards Mehul Shroff ...

このウィッシュリストリクエストのきっかけは何ですか?  意味が付けられたデータであるイベントフレームを直接取得可能となることで、製造工程特有のドメイン知識を持って作成された特徴量を使ったデータセット作成が容易になり、JMPの分析機能により高速な予測モデル作成等を実現することが出来る。   改善して欲しいことは何ですか?  現状、JMPをPIサーバーへ接続して取得可能であるのは生データと指定間隔のデータであるが、イベントフレームの取得機能を実現して欲しい。   この考え方がなぜ重要なのでしょうか?  PISystemはEXCELAdinによりデータを抽出することが可能であるため、EXCELによってデータ抽出してからJMPで分析することも可能であるが、現場でのデータ分析ツールの使用を推進するためには分析にJMPからPIサーバーへ接続し、直接イベントフレームが取得できると、JMP内のみで分析作業をライブさせることができる。   ...

What inspired this wish list request?  I frequently right click the gray triangle > Edit > Copy picture to export report images. When I use a local data filter, I need to use a screenshot to capture the LDF.   What is the improvement you would like to see?  When adding a LDF, nest it under a new outline box with the original report.   Why is this idea important?  Easier to export graphics without screenshots and ensure that the filtering options are recorded as well.   ...

What inspired this wish list request?    In my company, it is common to present data or distributions by box plots, across many different requirements (often > 100 features on a part).   Often, the design team will want to set specs more like control limits, and base a spec on demonstrated capability, usually to 4 or 5 sigma.   It is helpful to be able to present in graph builder, on box plots, or on histograms with error bars set to 3 4 5 or 6 sigma.   This feature is available in process capability platform, but you cannot plot multiple categories, or multiple FAI, on the same plot.       What is the improvement you would like to see?    For Box plot or histogram, please add options to show error bars with more modifications. It would be helpful to add error bars at various sigma (i.e. 3 sigma 1 cpk, 4 sigma 1.33 cpk etc.). At the moment, the only option is to add 1 sigma.   Why is this idea important?    This is very common in apple. ... View more

What inspired this wish list request?  When building complex models based on large number of collinear/correlated variables, there are several possibilities available. One of them is transforming the variables into principal components, and then create a model based on these principal components to avoid collinearity issues, reduce dimensionality and keep a large part of the initial information. The problem that could happen in predictive modeling is data leakage : information from the validation set and/or test set is used in the pre-processing and/or model building. This can happen in PCA platform if validation/test rows are not hidden and excluded : if the PCA is done on the whole dataset and after models are built on the training principal components data, the model still contains a part of the information from the validation and test sets. Model evaluation can become biased as the performances would be assessed too "optimistically".   What is the improvement you would like to see?  As for other platforms (see Fit Model below), I would like a validation role when launching the PCA platform dialog, so that the PCA is created with the training rows, and applied on validation and test rows :      Why is this idea important?  The validation role for PCA would enable user to be more aware of this data leakage situation when they are building predictive models. It's also part of the best practices to split the dataset first into train/valid/test sets before doing any transformation/model, so adding this validation role would enforce a reliable best practice for users. Finally, it would be also easier to use PCA in a more reliable way as a pre-processing step for predictive models with this feature, instead of manually or scripting excluding rows.   ... View more

What inspired this wish list request? When using Multivariate platform and using "Color map on Correlations" and any other of the non-parametric color map on correlation (Spearman, Kendall or Hoeffding's D), the colors in the scale are reversed : For parametric color map, by default positive correlations are in red, negative ones in blue :   For non-parametric color maps, by default positive correlations are in blue, negative ones in red (reversed color scale) :   What is the improvement you would like to see? I would prefer having the same color scale/code for both type of correlation map : red for positive correlations, blue for negative ones. The colors difference between the two type of correlation maps can be misleading.    Why is this idea important? This issue should not be a big problem to fix, and would enable to have consistent color scales for correlations by default for all users. It would avoid any manual reformatting (or JSL scripting). This problem is also highlighted when reading the JMP help : Multivariate Platform Options (jmp.com), where both color maps should have the same color scales : "on a scale from blue (+1) to red (-1)".     ...

What inspired this wish list request?  I am writing a script that will automate the following process:     Download a copy of a live Excel database located off the company’s internal SharePoint   Convert it to a JMP file   Save the newly created JMP file to my desktop  Execute several prebuilt JMP workflows  Save the individual reports to an HTML access link  Compile all the outputs (and links) into one aggregate report  Send a blast email to key stakeholders within the company    This will empower me to automate the dissemination of the company's process development and manufacturing data entirely, providing updates in a near real-time fashion. This system ensures access to the most current dataset available at any moment, all through the execution of a single script— a blend of Python and JMP scripting language    What is the improvement you would like to see? I would like to request that SAS create a new command for the SAS/JMP scripting language. This command should enable the execution of a ‘jmpflow’ file specified by the user.      Why is this idea important? Early-stage companies, particularly in the Biotechnology field, face a delicate balance. They must strive to automate as much of their data analysis and visualization workflows as possible without overextending resources or making excessive upfront investments in software and infrastructure. JMP already supports these tasks to a significant extent with features such as JMP scripts, workflows, and publishing capabilities. However, the introduction of a new command function that can execute pre-built ‘jmpflow’ file(s) would supplement these existing JMP features. This enhancement would empower data scientists and engineers to write more sophisticated code, automating the delivery of real-time insights on key metrics to stakeholders. Consequently, this will facilitate more informed decision-making and accelerate progress on critical path projects.  ... View more

What inspired this wish list request? color data representation and visualization are essential for all different kind of users community. Sometime, we use color to match county, customer company to make story more appealing.  It seems current JMP14 JSL does not allow the flexibility to let user assign special color in the color legend.      What is the improvement you would like to see?    Take Cheese.jmp as an example, the JSL script is shown below   It will be helpful that JSL allows users to assign and define color. For example, JSL can assign cheese A as pink color     Bivariate( Y( :Score ), X( :Count ), SendToReport( Dispatch( {}, "Bivar Plot", FrameBox, {Row Legend( Cheese, Color( 1 ), Color Theme( "JMP Default" ), Marker( 0 ), Marker Theme( "" ), Continuous Scale( 0 ), Reverse Scale( 0 ), Excluded Rows( 0 ) )} ) ) )   Why is this idea important? - Sometime, we use color to match county, customer company to make story more appealing.     ...

What inspired this wish list request?  I have a long list of test names pulled from a database (potentially several thousand plus). I would like to use the Data Filter so the user can interactively narrow down the list of tests to a few interesting ones. I have a script that extracts the selected tests from the data table and creates the appropriate SQL Query.   The most common method is to use the search bar in Regular Expression mode. However, because the list of results is filtered dynamically as the user types, it can result in unpredictable delays, pauses as JMP updates etc. For a few hundred entries it's fine, but for long lists it is frustrating that JMP will stop accepting input while filtering in the background (or will miss a few characters being typed).   At the moment I am using the following code in my data filter:   Add Filter( columns( :column ), Display( :column, Find( Set Text( "" ), Contains Terms( 0 ), Regular Expression( 1 ) ) ) )     What is the improvement you would like to see?  I would like to see an option available in the Data Filter search bar that only applies the regex code to the list when the user presses Enter (for example), or a button that applies the filter entered into the search bar.    Why is this idea important?  It improves the user experience when using Data Filter to construct query from very large lists of possible entries.    I am using JMP17.  ...
