Figure 9.161 Model Based on Adaptive Lasso
You are interested in the parameter estimates shown in the Adaptive Lasso with AICc Validation report. Based on the non-zero parameter estimates, the model suggests that Mill Time, Screen Size, Blend Time, Blend Speed, Compressor, Coating Viscosity, and Spray Rate are related to Dissolution.
Before reducing the model, ensure that no columns are selected in the Tablet Production.jmp data table. Selected columns are not deselected in the first step below. Ensuring that no columns are selected prevents the inadvertent inclusion of columns with zeroed terms.
If you prefer not to work through the steps in this section, click the green triangle next to the Generalized Regression Reduced Model script in the Tablet Production.jmp data table to obtain the reduced model.

Figure 9.162 Reduced Model Using Adaptive Lasso
Notice that the estimate for Blend Speed has a confidence interval (Lower 95%) that comes very close to including zero. Next, perform a simulation study to see how often Blend Speed would be included in the model had other data values from the dissolution distribution been observed.
This adds a new column called Dissolution Simulation Formula to the Tablet Production.jmp data table.
Figure 9.163 Simulation Formula
For each row, this formula simulates a value that could be obtained given the model and the distribution of Dissolution, which is estimated to be Normal with standard deviation about 1.998.
