Diagnostic, Interpretive and Predictive Plots to Visualize Your Results

DOE++ offers a wide selection of plots to help you illustrate and share your results with others. Individual plots, which are available for each design type based on their relevance and utility, include:

Level Plots:

  • Response vs. Level
  • Level Mean
  • Life Characteristic
  • Box Plot
  • Mean PDFs
  • Comparison Chart

Effect Plots:

  • Effect Probability
  • Pareto Chart
  • Main Effects
  • Interactions
  • Interaction Matrix
  • Term Effect
  • Cube Plot
  • Scatter Plot

Residual Plots:

  • Residual Probability
  • Residual vs. Fitted
  • Residual vs. Order
  • Residual vs. Factor
  • Residual Histogram
  • Residual Autocorrelation
  • Fitted vs. Actual

Diagnostic Plots:

  • Leverage
  • Cook's Distance
  • Box-Cox Transformation

Contour/Surface Plots

Contour and surface plots allow you to see how a combination of two factors affects the response. You can view the relationship in two or three dimensions.

MultiPlot Utility

The MultiPlot utility makes it easy to compare analyses by automatically plotting the results for multiple responses together in the same plot.

Side-by-Side Plots Utility

The Side-by-Side Plots utility allows you to view and/or print multiple plots for a given data set side-by-side. For example, you might want to show several residuals plots for a single analysis in the same window. This can help you gain insight into how well the model fits the data, whether applying a transformation to the response might be appropriate, potential outlier data points, the presence of additional factors that have not been accounted for, etc. Simply select the combination that meets your analysis/reporting needs.

Configure and Annotate Plot Graphics

All plot graphics are metafiles that can be pasted or inserted into other reports and presentations. The Plot Setup window allows you to configure the default appearance of plot output and ReliaSoft’s integrated metafile graphics editor, RS Draw, enables you to edit and annotate the plot graphics. This utility provides many options to draw attention to key results within your analysis, including the ability to insert text, highlight a point or line and/or mark the coordinates of a point.
