Preparing Data for Analysis with JMP

Guest Speaker:
Robert H. Carver, Ph.D.
Professor of Management and Data Science Program Director
Stonehill College

The 2016 GAISE College Report advocates the incorporation of technology, real data, multivariate thinking, and the importance of the full analytic process in college-level statistics courses. It is clear that data management –including acquisition, merging, subsetting, and preparation -- is a key part of the process.  Yet it is a challenge for college instructors to add data management to an already-full course. Data management tasks can be daunting for a student, and the prospect of teaching SQL in Intro Stat can appear overwhelming.

Advanced Research Methods

Research Methods with JMP: Clustering, Factor Analysis, and SEM

In this webinar we will explore techniques needed for Research Methods, including high-dimensional data visualization and modeling using JMP's graphing and multivariate analysis platforms (e.g. Multivariate, Cluster, PCA, Factor Analysis, and SEM).

Advanced Research Methods with JMP

With JMP Pro for Academic Research, you get all the sophisticated techniques and advanced analytics available in JMP Pro. For academic researchers, this translates into a greater ability to efficiently extract meaning from complex data and build better-performing models. In this webinar we see how to estimate a priori power for complex designs using the new Simulate facility in JMP Pro 13. We also expore tools for finding outliers, calculating new variables, shaping and restructuring data, as well as analysis methods for multiple comparisons in the context of large ANOVA designs.

JMP for Social Science Research

Overview of tools and analyses useful for research in the social sciences, including tabulating, graphing, ANOVA and regression.

Genetics and Genomics with JMP Genomics

An Overview of JMP Genomics: Expression, GWAS, and Plant Breeding

JMP Genomics is a statistical discovery software package for universities and research organizations that enables statistical geneticists, biologists, bioinformatics experts and statisticians to uncover meaningful patterns in high-throughput genetics, methylation and expression (metabolomic, transcriptomic and proteomic) data. In this webinar we look at three topic areas in genetic and genomic research and see how JMP Genomics speeds up the analysis and discovery process for (1) Expression Analysis, (2) GWAS, and (3) Plant Breeding. 

Running and Interpreting a Basic Expression Analysis

This video shows how to set up, run, and interpret a basic expression analysis in JMP Genomics. In this example I use the Basic RNAseq Workflow, which is a pipeline of some simple exploration on the markers and samples (looking at expression distributions for samples, removing "bad" samples, normalizing the samples' expression, exploring correlations and principle variance components) directly into an ANOVA analysis on the log2(expression) to find markers that are statistically significantly differentially expressed. We explore the resulting output as volcano plots (which we can filter further), Venn Diagrams to find markers significant in multiple comparisons, and tables of information about the final set of selected significant markers. This analysis can apply to any kind of continuous data across any kind of biological markers, such as metabolomics, proteomics, or expression.

Getting Started with JMP Genomics: Overview of Studies, Import, and Workflows

In this video we take a tour of the Genomics Started in JMP Genomics software.
Use this Genomics Starter to explore examples, add studies, import data, and use workflows for common analytical processes.

Getting Started with JMP Genomics: Creating the EDF and Importing SAM and BAM Files

Learn to import SAM or BAM files into JMP Genomics, taking raw (but aligned) data files and creating appropriate count data files that can be used in further analyses within JMP Genomics.

JMP Genomics: Move or Share Results

When you move or share a folder of JMP Genomics results, the paths will break. This is a short video to show you how to easily fix those paths.

Special Topics

The Scientific Workflow in JMP: Creating Reproducible Analyses

In the webinar we will see how to use JMP journals and scripting to keep track of an analysis workflow in a professional research environment. Our attention will be on how to create analyses that are easily reproducible if data were to change, and the documentation of an analysis process for reporting in journals or to professional colleagues.

JMP Integration and Extensibility

In this webinar we explore many ways to extend core JMP functionality through its integration with R and Python. We show how to connect JMP to R and Python, how to create your own add-ins for JMP that take advantage of these connections, and where to find more examples and help on this topic. We also reference the JMP integration with SAS, CAS, and Matlab, and even code-generation in Python, C, SAS, SQL, and Javascript.

This webinar is geared for JMP users who need an analysis available only in R or Python, or users of R and Python who also want to make use of time-saving, interactive, and powerful features in JMP, as well as JMP users who want to package a JMP GUI front-end for an R or Python routine, to allow other JMP users to “use” R and Python in a JMP point-and-click interface. 

JMP for Grading and Assessment

The JMP for Grading and Assessment webinar introduces features of JMP useful for managing student grades in courses. You will learn how to: Import and export student grades to campus CMS systems, check grades for entry errors, create weighted averages across assignments, create standardized scores for assignments, create score columns dropping a lowest score, and how to generate letter grades based on scoring criteria.

JMP for Institutional Research

JMP for Institutional Research webinars will demonstrate a variety of analysis tools and platforms in JMP useful for analyzing data commonly used by professionals in Academic Institutional Research.

Using JMP to Analyze Data with Many Variables:

Sept 15th, 2020. Presented by: Kevin Potcner

In the webinar you will learn tools in JMP that can analyze data with a large number of variables. Techniques will include: 1. Using animation-based visualization to explore data over time (using Bubble Plot). 2. Performing a large number of statistical tests simultaneously to find those response variables that result in statistically significant results (using Response Screener). 3. Finding the variables that most impact a response when there are more variables than observations (using Bootstrap Forest). 4. Comparing variation between two groups of highly-dimensional data (using Principal Component Analysis).
