CTO Corner with Dr. Neil Polhemus

CTO's Corner

We are fast approaching a time when users will not be satisfied with graphs that simply display a static view of data. Young people who have grown up with tablets and video games wonder why when they poke at many statistical graphs, nothing happens. They are right in thinking that dynamic interaction with statistical models can add new insights into what their data are trying to say. Version 17 of Statgraphics Centurion introduces new dynamic graphs called Statlets®, which let users interactively change analysis options using controls on a toolbar at the top of the Statlet window. For example, the window below shows the Bivariate Density Statlet applied to a sample of body temperatures and heart rates of 130 individuals: 

Bivariate_Density

The window displays a nonparametric estimate of the joint density function for the two variables, based on an estimation window whose width can be varied using a slider on the toolbar. By changing the width of the estimation window, one gets a sense of whether the actual distribution is unimodal or multimodal, as well as whether the two variables are significantly correlated. In a future newsletter, I’ll show you how important dynamic interaction can be when the data describe changes in multiple variables over time.
