Prism 10.3.0

Prism 10.3.0 was released on July 31, 2024.

Welcome to Prism 10.3.0!

More advanced statistical methods, machine-learning algorithms, sample size and power analysis, new stunning visualizations, modern authentication and license provisioning tools. This Prism release has it all, including:

  • Sample size and power analysis*: quickly determine the number of samples or subjects that you need for your experimental design; explore the relationships between sample size and power; investigate the smallest detectable effect size when working with a limited number of samples or subjects.
  • Hierarchical clustering**: uncover the natural connections between observations in your data. This machine learning technique allows you to investigate how closely different observations are related to each other and uncover groupings within your data.
  • K-means clustering**: specify a target number of clusters, and this machine learning algorithm will partition your data, iteratively grouping the most similar observations together and adjusting cluster assignments.
  • Dendrograms**: visualize the hierarchical relationships from clustering analyses. Use dendrograms as an independent graph or as part of a heatmap from the output of hierarchical clustering.
  • Confidence ellipses and convex hulls**: visually represent estimates for the parameters that define the population from which your data were drawn, or clearly indicate the boundaries for groups of data on your graphs.
  • TeX-rendered equations for nonlinear regression: add high-quality, formatted equations from nonlinear regression onto your graphs. Insert formulas that include best-fit parameter values directly beside your graphed curves.
  • And much more!!

* Requires a Prism Cloud Workspace, available for subscriptions with named-user licenses

** Available only for subscriptions with Prism Enterprise licenses

Sample Size and Power Analysis

Access the ability to perform sample size calculations and power analysis through your Prism Cloud workspace. Determine the required sample size for your experiment, or investigate the relationships between sample size, power, and effect size. Access Prism Cloud's Sample Size and Power Analysis calculator from directly within the Prism Welcome dialog.

Hierarchical Clustering

One of two new machine learning algorithms to investigate groups or clusters of observations within your data. Hierarchical clustering builds a tree-like structure of relationships, showing how similar or dissimilar each observation in your data is from other observations or groups. Visualize the results as a clustered heatmap or as individual dendrograms.

[Enterprise license required]

K-means Clustering

The second machine learning algorithm introduced in Prism 10.3.0 along with hierarchical clustering. Specify a specific number of clusters or a range of clusters to analyze with your data, and Prism will iteratively optimize cluster assignments for each observation in your data.

[Enterprise license required]

Dendrograms

Visualize the relationships between groups identified as part of hierarchical clustering analysis. Customize your graph by specifying a specific number of clusters or a cut height for the dendrogram.

[Enterprise license required]

Confidence Ellipses and Convex Hulls

Enhance the results of your clustering analyses or simply highlight groups within your datasets by adding confidence ellipses or convex hulls to your multiple variables graphs. Confidence ellipses are a great way to indicate the expected location of population parameter values (such as the mean), while convex hulls are an excellent choice to demonstrate group boundaries on your graphs.

[Enterprise license required]

TeX-rendered equations

Nonlinear regression in Prism allows you to fit a curve to your data by determining best-fit parameters values for the selected model. Graphing this curve allows you to demonstrate the nonlinear relationship within your recorded data. Now, you can display these best-fit parameter values for your curve directly on your graph, giving any reader all the information that they need in one place.
