Displaying Confirmed Normal Characteristics

The Confirmed Normal Characteristics displays only those fields for which you have chosen one of the options, Confirm <field_name> should be clustered around <mean_value> or Ignore extreme values of <field_name> in the normal distribution analysis.

The columns that appear in this area are:

  1. Feature Id—Name of the measurement field that has been confirmed / ignored for normal distribution analysis.
  2. Description—Confirmation statement based on the option you select. The types of description are:
  • The field <field_name> is expected to be normally distributed with mean <mean_value> — This statement is displayed when you select Confirm <field_name> should be clustered around <mean_value>. Note that such fields are scanned by the KS6800A software, whether they have outliers or not. Refer to Displaying Extreme Values Outliers for more information.
  • The field <field_name> should be ignored when it comes to extreme values — displayed when you select Ignore extreme values of <field_name>. Note that such fields are not scanned by the KS6800A software at all, even if they may have one or more extreme values as outliers.
Note that you can click either Feature Id or Description to return to the previous page and choose the other option for normal distribution analysis.
  1. Unconfirm—Click to remove a specific field from the Confirmed Normal Characteristics entries. The removed entry reappears in the list of Possible Normal Characteristics entries but without a score assigned to it. You must click Run Scanner again to evaluate the score for such fields.

You may view either 5, 10 (default), 25 or 50 rows per page. Use the navigation buttons to view the rows displayed on another page.
