Sky Alibhai and Zoe Jewell, wildlife biologists and founders of WildTrack, were a bit hit at the SAS Austin office Sept. 23. They showed their work in applying JMP customization, visualization and analytics to study animal footprints in order to find a better way to track endangered species. Sky and Zoe
The Internet is all abuzz, aflutter and atwitter lately about Netflix’s recent decisions to raise prices and split its well-known DVD-mail service off into a new service called Qwikster. I’m not immune to the hype, and since my last Netflix charge came in at over $25, I've been wondering if
JMP Genomics 5.1 has been released! Although it feels like we’ve been working on this release for a long time, it was only last November when JMP Genomics 5.0 went out the door. What have we been up to during that time? Quite a lot! One big change for our
The autumn lineup of live Mastering JMP webcasts is set. And if you are one of the 2,000+ JMP users who attended a live webcast during the first half of 2011, you'll notice some new topics: • Sept. 29: Finding the Best Predictive Model for Your Data • Oct. 6:
Many companies have developed custom applications using JSL (JMP Scripting Language). These applications put the rich analytic capability and dynamic interactive graphics of JMP into the hands of hundreds of analysts who make critical decisions. But, JSL can also be used to extend JMP more generally by adding new features
Ever wanted to create a custom map in JMP using your own custom location coordinates? Perhaps you want to map out a new building or landscaping effort so you can visually analyze the project data in JMP. Or perhaps you want to be able to see a layout of your organization’s operations
SAS® Structural Equation Modeling for JMP® is a new application that enables researchers to use SAS and JMP to draw models by using an interface that is built on the SAS/STAT® CALIS procedure. To create models in SAS Structural Equation Modeling for JMP, you simply drag variables into the diagram
With all the fanfare in New York for Derek Jeter reaching the 3,000-hit mark, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to gather some data to put this rare event in perspective. First off, let me qualify my interest and passion around this topic. I was born and raised in Pelham, New
When building models to predict a binary outcome variable, such as respond or not respond, the proportion in the desired category (respond) may be low. For example, in direct mail campaigns the response rate is often 1% or lower. In such cases, a predictive model is likely to learn how
