Test for Means

The Model tab generally includes one or more of the following sections:

Data Fields - these are the data field configuration properties mandatory for the model to execute.
Model Specific Configurations - configuration properties in this section will vary depending on the selected model. If the model does not require additional configuration, the section(s) will not be shown.

One Sample T-Test

Properties

Label	UI	Default	Description
Data Fields
Category Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Represents non-numeric groupings (eg, product type, customer segment) used to compare differences across multiple samples.
Value Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Contains the numerical data being tested (eg, average sales, customer ratings) to determine if the sample mean is significantly different from a given value.
Preview Model Data	Button		Opens a dialog to view the data that will be used by the model. See Model > Model tab \| Preview-Model-Data-Dialog.
Model Configuration
Is the Average Different From	Number Field		The benchmark value against which the sample mean is compared, to identify significant deviations.
Confidence Score	Number Field	95	Represents the range in which the true prediction is expected to fall, based on a chosen confidence level. For example, a 95% confidence level means there’s a 95% chance the actual value lies within that range. Users can adjust the confidence level (eg, 90 to 99), with higher levels widening the interval to reflect greater certainty.
Report Insight By	Dropdown	Lower Bound	Defines how insights are generated based on key statistical measures: Lower Bound - the minimum expected value in the analysis, helping identify underperformance. Upper Bound - the maximum expected value, highlighting high-performing data points. Mean - the average value, providing a baseline comparison for evaluating trends and differences.
Rules for Adding to Insights Feed Page from Scheduler	Radio-buttons		This section allows the user to select if the Quick Insight will be added to the Insights Feed page when generated from a Scheduled Task. See Model > Model tab \| Rules-for-Adding-Insights-Feed-Page-from-Scheduler.

Two Sample T-Test / AB Test

Properties

Label	UI	Default	Description
Data Fields
Category Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Represents non-numeric groupings (eg, product type, customer segment) used to compare differences across multiple samples.
Value Fields	Dropdown w/Expression		Contains the numerical data being tested (eg, revenue, customer satisfaction scores) to compare the means of two distinct groups.
Preview Model Data	Button		Opens a dialog to view the data that will be used by the model. See Model > Model tab \| Preview-Model-Data-Dialog.
Model Configuration
Values for Comparison	Repeater Section		Defines the two data sets being analyzed to determine if there is a statistically significant difference between their mean values.
Value 1	Dropdown
Value 2	Dropdown
Confidence Score	Number Field	95	Represents the range in which the true prediction is expected to fall, based on a chosen confidence level. For example, a 95% confidence level means there’s a 95% chance the actual value lies within that range. Users can adjust the confidence level (eg, 90 to 99), with higher levels widening the interval to reflect greater certainty.
Report Insight By	Dropdown	Lower Bound	Defines how insights are generated based on key statistical measures: Lower Bound - the minimum expected value in the analysis, helping identify underperformance. Upper Bound - the maximum expected value, highlighting high-performing data points. Mean - the average value, providing a baseline comparison for evaluating trends and differences.
Rules for Adding to Insights Feed Page from Scheduler	Radio-buttons		This section allows the user to select if the Quick Insight will be added to the Insights Feed page when generated from a Scheduled Task. See Model > Model tab \| Rules-for-Adding-Insights-Feed-Page-from-Scheduler.

Multi Sample T-Test

Properties

Label	UI	Default	Description
Data Fields
Category Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Represents non-numeric groupings (eg, product type, customer segment) used to compare differences across multiple samples.
Value Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Contains the numerical data being tested (eg, average sales, customer ratings) to determine if the sample mean is significantly different from a given value.
Group By Field	Dropdown w/Expression
Show Top/Bottom N Records	ON/OFF Toggle	OFF	Enable to show only the Top or Bottom N number of Records.
Max No. of Records	Number Field		Select the number of records to show if Show Top/Bottom N Records is enabled.
Show TopN Plus Other	ON/OFF Toggle	OFF	Enable to also show the Other category as a sum of remaining records if Show Top/Bottom N Records is enabled.
Preview Model Data	Button		Opens a dialog to view the data that will be used by the model. See Model > Model tab \| Preview-Model-Data-Dialog.
Model Configuration
Series	Checkboxes	All selected
Type of Data	Dropdown	Data is Normal	Select the Type of Data from either of the following options: Data is Normal - data is expected to have a normal value distribution. Data has Outliers - data is expected to have a distribution with some outliers.
Confidence Score	Number Field	95	Represents the range in which the true prediction is expected to fall, based on a chosen confidence level. For example, a 95% confidence level means there’s a 95% chance the actual value lies within that range. Users can adjust the confidence level (eg, 90 to 99), with higher levels widening the interval to reflect greater certainty.
Report Insight By	Dropdown	Lower Bound	Defines how insights are generated based on key statistical measures: Lower Bound - the minimum expected value in the analysis, helping identify underperformance. Upper Bound - the maximum expected value, highlighting high-performing data points. Mean - the average value, providing a baseline comparison for evaluating trends and differences.
Report Insight For Top N Percentages Bottom N Percentages	Checkboxes	2	This setting allows users to focus on the Top N or Bottom N categories based on their proportions. Top N - highlights the categories with the highest proportions (eg, top-performing products or highest conversion rates). Bottom N - identifies the categories with the lowest proportions (eg, underperforming regions or lowest customer engagement).
Rules for Adding to Insights Feed Page from Scheduler	Radio-buttons		This section allows the user to select if the Quick Insight will be added to the Insights Feed page when generated from a Scheduled Task. See Model > Model tab \| Rules-for-Adding-Insights-Feed-Page-from-Scheduler.

Single Series T-Test (One Sample Data to Two Groups)

Properties

Label	UI	Default	Description
Data Fields
Category Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Represents non-numeric groupings (eg, product type, customer segment) used to compare differences across multiple samples.
Value Field	Dropdown w/Expression		Contains the numerical data being tested (eg, average sales, customer ratings) to determine if the sample mean is significantly different from a given value.
