Two Sample Proportion Test with SigmaXL

What is the Two Sample Proportion Test? The two sample proportion test is a hypothesis test to compare the proportions of one certain event occurring in two populations following the binomial distribution. Null Hypothesis(H0): p1 = p2 Alternative Hypothesis(Ha): p1 ≠ p2 Two Sample Proportion Test Assumptions The sample data drawn from the populations of…

One Sample t Test with JMP

One Sample t Test What is a t Test? In statistics, a t test is a hypothesis test in which the test statistic follows a Student’s t distribution if the null hypothesis is true. We apply a one sample t test when the population variance (σ) is unknown and we use the sample standard deviation…

Central Limit Theorem with JMP

What is Central Limit Theorem? The Central Limit Theorem is one of the fundamental theorems of probability theory. It states a condition under which the mean of a large number of independent and identically-distributed random variables, each of which has a finite mean and variance, would be approximately normally distributed. Let us assume Y1, Y2…

Multi Vari Analysis with JMP

What is Multi-Vari Analysis? Multi-vari analysis is a graphic-driven method to analyze the effects of categorical inputs on a continuous output. It studies how the variation in the output changes across different inputs and helps us quantitatively determine the major source of variability in the output. Multi-vari charts are used to visualize the source of…

Attribute MSA with SigmaXL

Use SigmaXL to Implement an Attribute MSA Data File: “Attribute MSA” tab in “Sample Data.xlsx” (an example in the AIAG MSA Reference Manual, 3rd Edition). Step 1: Reorganize the original data into four new columns (i.e., Appraiser, Assessed Result, Part, and Reference). Select the entire range of the original data (“Part”, “Reference”, “Appraiser A”, “Appraiser…

Variable Gage R&R with JMP

What is Variable Gage R&R? Variable Gage Repeatability & Reproducibility  (Gage R&R) is a method used to analyze the variability of a measurement system by partitioning the variation of the measurements using ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). Whenever something is measured repeatedly or by different people or processes, the results of the measurements will vary. Variation…

Histogram Rendering with JMP

What is a Histogram? A histogram is a graphical tool to present the distribution of the data. The X axis of a histogram represents the possible values of the variable and the Y axis represents the frequency of the value occurring. A histogram consists of adjacent rectangles erected over intervals with heights equal to the…

P Chart with SigmaXL

What is a P Chart? The P chart plots the percentage of defectives in one subgroup as a data point. It considers the situation when the subgroup size of inspected units is not constant. The underlying distribution of the P-chart is binomial distribution. P Chart Equations Data Point:         Center Line:  …

Pareto Analysis with JMP

What is the Pareto Principle? The Pareto principle is an observation not a law.  Named after Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, this principle states that for a variety of situations, 80% of consequences come from 20% of the causes, thus the Pareto principle is also known as the 80/20 rule. The 80/20 rule basically reminds us that…

Box Cox Transformation with SigmaXL

Box Cox Transformation Data transforms are usually applied so that the data appear to more closely meet assumptions of a statistical inference model to be applied or to improve the interpret-ability or appearance of graphs. Power transformation is a class of transformation functions that raise the response to some power. For example, a square root…

Box Plot with JMP

What is a Box Plot? A box plot is a graphical method to summarize a data set by visualizing the minimum value, 25th percentile, median, 75th percentile, the maximum value, and potential outliers. A percentile is the value below which a certain percentage of data fall. For example, if 75% of the observations have values…
