Model Browser User's Guide

Global Level: Toolbar

This toolbar appears when a response feature node or one-stage model node (both have a global icon) is selected in the model tree. Note that for one-stage models all model child nodes of the one-stage test plan are of this type.

Further buttons appear on the right depending on the type of model at the node selected. See Global Level: Model-Specific Tools.

The seven left icons remain constant throughout the levels. They are for project and node management, and here the print icon is enabled, as there are plots in this view. See Project Level: Toolbar for details on these buttons.

• View Model -- Opens a dialog displaying the terms in the current model.
• Box-Cox Transform -- Opens the Box-Cox Transformation plots, where you can minimize SSE to try to improve the fit. See Box-Cox Transformation for statistical details.
• Build Models -- Opens the Build Models dialog, where you can choose a template for the type of models you want to build. There are predefined templates for polynomials, RBF kernels, and free knot splines. You can also save templates of whatever models you choose using the Model -> Make Template menu item. User-defined templates can then be found via the Build Models dialog. You can use the Browse button to find stored templates that are not in the default directory.

These three toolbar icons appear for every global model node (although Box-Cox is not enabled for neural net models). The icons that appear to the right are model specific.
