Teaching Exploratory Data Analysis with JMP

Many classroom data analysis exercises involve a clean data set, clearly defined question, and single analysis. But real-world data analysis isn’t always so straightforward. Instead, it often involves some form of data exploration: initially assessing data integrity, searching for patterns with whichever graphs or analyses are needed, formulating new questions based on initial findings, and so forth. Teaching this exploratory process helps prepare students for the real-world data analysis challenges they will face after graduation. This webinar will help you build this important skill into your course by reviewing JMP tools for exploring data visually and statistically as well as for assessing data integrity. We also review relevant teaching resources.

Teaching ANOVA and Regression with JMP

In this webinar, we will explore platforms in JMP made for carrying out ANOVA and Regression analyses, as well as interactive teaching and learning tools to explore concepts related to ANOVA and Regression.

Teaching Categorical Data Analysis with JMP

JMP includes a range tools that are helpful in teaching categorical data analysis concepts and techniques, including confidence intervals and hypothesis tests on proportions, contingency analyses, logistic regression, and more. This webinar will provide an overview of these tools along with some teaching-oriented tips along the way, and it will also provide a brief review of JMP's free teaching resources related to categorical data analysis. By the end, you'll be better prepared to use JMP to teach categorical data analysis in your course.

Research with JMP

Cleaning and Preparing Data for Analysis

Researchers are intimately familiar with the amount of work often needed to clean and prepare data so it’s ready to perform specific statistical analyses. At times, these efforts can take quite a bit more time than the analyses themselves. In this webinar, a statistical scientist from JMP demonstrates a variety of easy-to-use tools to help expedite these efforts. Topics include importing data, recoding and transforming variables, filtering data, and recording/automating operations, among others.

• Watch the Video

Tools for Data Exploration

Each new data set we encounter brings with it the need for initial data exploration. Before building models or running tests, we need to summarize the data numerically and graphically, screen for patterns or anomalies, and ensure that the data are suitable for further analysis. Put more generally, we need to "get to know" our data. In this webinar, you’ll learn JMP tools and techniques you can use for  the initial exploration of every new data set you analyze.

Graph Builder and Beyond: Data Visualization with JMP

This webinar is for any academic looking to visualize their data, either for data exploration or for presentation and publication. We demonstrate how to make a variety of basic and specialized graphs in Graph Builder, with additional graphing platforms covered in the accompanying JMP Journal file. Learn how to create effective data visualizations easily, without writing any code.

This webinar focuses on constructing different types of graphs. To learn how to customize graph aesthetics and export in high quality formats for presentations or publications, see Producing Pubilcation-Quality Graphics.

Producing Publication-Quality Graphics

Research publications and presentations call for high-quality data visualizations, often following specific formatting requirements, aesthetic preferences, or other customization needs. While most JMP users are aware of JMP's strength in exploratory graphing, fewer are aware that JMP also is capable of producing highly customized, publication-quality graphs. In this webinar, you'll learn basic and advanced techniques for customizing graph formats and aesthetics as well as how to export graphs in high-quality image formats that can be resized without becoming blurry or pixelated. You'll also see how to perform extremely fine customizations on JMP graphs after exporting them, opening up a nearly infinite level of customization.

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).

Tools for Reproducibility and Automation

Reproducibility of statistical results is paramount in scientific research. Many researchers use code-based software in part for this very reason: code both documents and executes the exact steps needed to reproduce an analysis. Even with its point-and-click interface, JMP provides several ways to capture and re-execute JSL code for your actions, offering the best of both worlds: the ease of point-and-click and the inherent reproducibility of code.

This webinar demonstrates several tools for reproducibility in JMP, including Workflow Builder, a new tool in JMP 17 for automatically recording and re-executing point-and-click actions, as well as for applying those recorded actions to new data sets.

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.
