How to exclude data points starting with a specific word from a PCA and followed by a graph builder?

Question

Hi,

I have a dataset where the sample name for some data points start with "Bad...". I want to exclude these data points starting with "Bad" from a PCA but they should still be visible in the plot.

After PCA I plot the PC1 and PC2 in graph builder and here I also want the same datapoints to be excluded but visible in the graph.

Is there a way to script this in JSL? So I don't need to manually exclude the data point from the data table.

I'm using JMP18.

Hope you can help.

If you are looking for full matches, contains() is one option.

Hi, thank you for your reply!

Could you help me how the script would look if I want to exclude multiple files with specific sample names instead?

Thanks in advance

You can use Select Where with Starts With to select those rows and then exclude them

Current Data Table() << Select Where(Starts With(:sample, "Bad")) << Exclude(1);

Then in graph builder, hold shift and click on red triangle to select show excluded rows

If you wish to show the values in Principal Components platform I think you would have to write a script for that using graphic script
