Please describe the new or improved feature or solution you would like to see.
In JMP 18 or later, we have the Control Level column property.
Platforms invoked by Fit Model currently does not recognized this column property.
I would like to suggest that the Fit Model platforms set the Control Level to the reference level.
Run the script below. "Control" is set to the control level by the Control Level column property, but it is ignored in Fit Model platforms and "Drug B" is set to the reference level.
dt = New Table( "Test",
New Column( "X",
Character,
Set Property( "Control Level", "Control" ),
Set Values(
{"Control", "Control", "Control", "Control", "Drug A", "Drug A",
"Drug A", "Drug A", "Drug A", "Drug B", "Drug B", "Drug B"}
)
),
New Column( "Y",
Character,
/*Set Property( "Target Level", "Alive" ),*/
Set Values(
{"Dead", "Dead", "Alive", "Alive","Alive", "Dead", "Dead", "Dead",
"Dead", "Alive", "Alive", "Dead"}
)
)
);
Wait(0);
New Window("Test",
H List Box(
dt << Fit Model(
Y( :Y ),
Effects( :X ),
Personality( "Nominal Logistic" ),
Run( Likelihood Ratio Tests( 1 ), Wald Tests( 0 ) )
),
dt << Fit Model(
Y( :Y ),
Effects( :X ),
Personality( "Generalized Linear Mixed Model" ),
Run( Likelihood Ratio Tests( 1 ), Wald Tests( 0 ) )
)));
What would the value be to you and/or other users if this new feature is provided?
If this feature is implemented, we can easily specify the reference group.
Is this an external customer request?
Shuntaro Sato-sensei at Nagasaki University hospital pointed out the inconsistency between platforms.
Is there a competitive software package that has this feature or solution that we should be aware of?
I do not know.
Will this impact a renewal, expansion, or adoption at a customer, and does this put an account at risk if we do not address this?
No.
