Functional Data Explorer
Perform Functional Data Analysis
The Functional Data Explorer platform is available only in JMP Pro.
The Functional Data Explorer (FDE) platform is designed for data that are functions, signals, or series. It can be used as an exploratory data analysis tool or as a dimension-reduction technique. In the case of dimension reduction, the FDE platform converts functional data into a form that can be analyzed in another JMP platform.
Data preprocessing tools are available in the FDE platform, including several types of transformations for output data and alignments for input data. A functional model is created by fitting a B-spline, P-spline, or Fourier basis model to the data. When a model is fit, functional principal components analysis (functional PCA) is automatically performed on the functional model. Results from the functional PCA, such as the functional principle component scores, are saved to a separate data table and used for feature extraction or dimension reduction.
