Graphical interactive model selection is provided. A response variable vector for each value of a group variable and an explanatory variable vector are defined. A wavelet function is fit to the explanatory variable vector paired with the response variable vector defined for each value of the group variable. Each fit wavelet function defines coefficients for each value of the group variable. A curve is presented for each value of the group variable and is defined by the plurality of coefficients of an associated fit wavelet function. An indicator is received of a request to perform functional analysis using the coefficients for each value of the of the group variable based on a predefined factor variable. A model is trained using the coefficients for each value of the group variable and a factor variable value associated with each observation vector of each plurality of observation vectors as a model effect.

Analytic system for interactive graphical model selection based on wavelet coefficients

An analytic system provides direct functional principal component analysis. (A) A next group variable value is selected from values of a group variable. (B) Explanatory variable values of observations having the selected next group variable value are sorted in ascending order. (C) The response variable value associated with each sorted explanatory variable value is stored in a next row of a data matrix. (D) (A) through (C) are repeated. (E) An eigenfunction index is incremented. (F) An FPCA is performed using the data matrix to define an eigenfunction for the eigenfunction index. (G) (E) and (F) are repeated. (H) FPCA results from the performed FPCA are presented within a window of a display. The FPCA results include an eigenvalue and an eigenfunction associated with the eigenvalue for each functional principal component identified from the performed FPCA in (F).

Graphical interactive model selection is provided. A dataset includes observation vectors defined for each value of a plurality of values of a group variable. A nonlinear model is trained with each plurality of observation vectors to describe the response variable based on the explanatory variable for each value of the plurality of values of the group variable. Nonlinear model results are presented within a first sub-window of a first window. An indicator of a request to perform parameter analysis of the nonlinear model results is received. A linear model is trained. Trained linear model results from the trained linear model are presented within a second sub-window of the first window for each parameter variable of the nonlinear model. Predicted response variable values are presented as a function of the explanatory variable and the factor variable value using the trained nonlinear model within a third sub-window of the first window.

Analytic system for two-stage interactive graphical model selection

Graphical interactive model selection is provided. A basis function is fit to each plurality of observation vectors defined for each value of a group variable. Basis results are presented within a first sub-window of a first window of a display. Functional principal component analysis (FPCA) is automatically performed on each basis function. FPCA results are presented within a second sub-window of the first window. An indicator of a request to perform functional analysis using the FPCA results based on a predefined factor variable is received in association with the first window. A model is trained using an eigenvalue and an eigenfunction computed as a result of the FPCA for each plurality of observation vectors using the factor variable value as a model effect. (G) Trained model results are presented within a third sub-window of the first window of the display.

Graphical interactive basis function selection is provided. A presented criterion fit graph includes a curve for each parameter value of predefined parameter values. Each curve shows a fit criterion value as a function of a number of locations values. A best fit graph is presented next to the presented criterion fit graph. The best fit graph includes location lines, wherein a location line is defined at each location defined for a determined best fit basis function, and a best fit function curve that is a plot of a response variable value computed as a function of an explanatory variable value using the best fit basis function. A first location line of the location lines is moved to a different location value. Computations are repeated replacing the location value associated with the first location line with the different location value to update the criterion fit graph and the best fit graph.

A computing device provides graphical interactive b-spline model selection. A presented criterion fit graph includes a number of internal knots line that indicates a number of internal knots value of a determined best fit b-spline model and a polynomial degree curve for each of a set of polynomial degree values. Each polynomial degree curve shows a fit criterion value as a function of the number of internal knot values. A best fit b-spline model graph is presented next to the presented criterion fit graph that includes a knot location line at each of the knot locations of the determined best fit b-spline model and a best fit model curve computed using the coefficients of the determined best fit b-spline model. An indicator that the number of internal knots line is moved to a different number of internal knots value is received. The best fit b-spline model graph is then updated.
