Data Exploration and Analysis

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.

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.

Special Topics

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.

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.

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).

Generalized Linear Mixed Models in JMP: GLMM Add-In

Jan 27, 2021. Presented by: Ruth Hummel

This webinar covers how to use Generalized Linear Mixed Models in JMP using a new JMP Add-In. These models are commonly needed by researchers, practitioners, professors, and students in the life sciences and related fields. Example will cover mixed models with continuous normally distributed data and then with count data (with integer values 0, 1, 2, …), and with proportion data (with the number of successes out of a specified number of trials). We also cover the basics of random effects, the concept of LSMeans, back-transforming estimates and CIs, creating interaction plots on the original data scale, warnings about the interpretation of differences, and the idea of overdispersion and accounting for this in the Poisson distribution with an experimental unit effect. The webinar is divided into five parts.

• Watch the Video: Part 2, covering the basic statistical details of GLMMs.
