When I looked at the list of books that came with JMP 9, I noticed interesting changes, which the JMP documentation team (Susan Conaghan, Melanie Drake, Jonathan Gatlin and Sheila Loring) explained to me. The changes are part of their ongoing project to upgrade JMP documentation. Here's how you can
Jeff Perkinson, JMP Product Manager, is putting the final touches on his live webcast for next Tuesday, when he will demonstrate the new analytic and graphical capabilities in JMP 9. That's the same day -- Oct. 12 -- that JMP 9 starts shipping. The one-hour demo will show JMP users
It's exciting to see how JMP users transform data into information, and even more so when the effort involves students. For the second summer, students at Womens' Microfinance Initiative (WMI) used JMP to evaluate microfinance programs in Uganda. One of this year's students was my college-aged daughter, who introduced me
I’ve always found the title of the book series "for Dummies" somewhat insulting. However, during many of the webcasts JMP offers, we get asked the question, “Is there a JMP for Dummies book?” Two SAS authors, Curt Hinrichs and Chuck Boiler, just released a concise illustrated guide that comes close.
José and Brenda Ramírez are not only SAS and JMP experts, great teachers and smart, funny people. They’re also international technical publications winners. Their book, Analyzing and Interpreting Continuous Data Using JMP: A Step-by-Step Guide, won the International Technical Publications Competition (ITPC) Award of Excellence. The awarding organization is the
Graph Builder is among the easiest and most versatile platforms in JMP. In this short demo (duration: 04:19 | opens in a new window), extracted from a longer demo given by JMP Systems Engineer Sam Gardner, you see how to: Analyze data and visualize results by dragging variables into the
I recently came across an announcement about a Georgia Tech Research Institute Distinguished Performance Award given to Tommer Ender. Tommer used JMP in his research when he worked with Dmitri Mavris as a PhD candidate at Georgia Tech. Tommer, now Dr. Ender, currently works at Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI)
While searching the Web for jokes and amusing videos for students considering studying statistics, I came across a cool video in which Oxford mathematician Peter Donnelly talks about stats and gives some examples of common mistakes people make when interpreting stats. In the last eight minutes, he describes a famous
Bubble Plots in JMP are a good way to analyze and visualize the relationship between three or more variables, especially if you want to analyze over time or over any other continuous variable. JMP Systems Engineer Sam Gardner gave a brief demo (duration: 04:19 | opens in a new window)
I chatted with Malcolm Moore, JMP Technical Manager for Europe, about the Scientific Computing article by Mark Anawis: "Six Sigma in the PC World -- Investigational approach benefits from the power of statistical tools." Anawis describes how statistical tools, including JMP, can be used as part of the DMAIC methodology.
