Life Distribution - Compare Groups Report

The Life Distribution - Compare Groups report compares different groups using a single specified distribution. You can compare the CDF, Quantile, Hazard, and Density functions. You can also consolidate the probability and quantile predictions of all groups. For example, you might compare Weibull fits for components grouped by supplier. In contrast, the analysis generated when you use the Life Distribution tab compares several fitted distributions for a single group.

Tip: In the Compare Distribution, Compare Quantile, Compare Hazard, and Compare Density plots, you can select one or more groups in the legend to the right of each plot. When you select a group in the legend, all of the other groups in the plot are hidden so that you can focus on the selected group.

For an example of this report, see Example of Comparing the Same Distribution across Groups.

The Compare Groups report can contain the following content and options:

Compare Distributions in Life Distribution (no Distribution Profiler)

Statistics for Compare Groups

Tip: If you find that the report window is getting too long, select Tabbed Report from the red triangle menu next to Life Distribution - Compare Groups.
