ADVANCED CORRELATION AND PROCESS WINDOW EVALUATION APPLICATION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a data type, a report key, and a dependent variable table comprising dependent variables;
automatically locating independent variable data based on said data type and said report key, wherein said independent variable data comprises independent variables;
automatically performing a statistical analysis to find correlation results between said dependent variables and said independent variables; and
outputting said correlation results.

Abstract
A method only has the user input (or select) a data type, a report key, a dependent variable table, and/or filtering restrictions. Using this information, the method automatically locates independent variable data based on the data type and the report key. This independent variable data can be in the form of a table and comprises independent variables. The method automatically joins the dependent variable table and the independent variable data to create a joint table. Then, the method can automatically perform a statistical analysis of the joint table to find correlations between the dependent variables and the independent variables and output the correlations, without requiring the user to input or identify the independent variables.

11. A method comprising:
-
receiving input from a user consisting of only; a data type and a report key; a dependent variable table comprising dependent variables; and filtering restrictions; automatically locating independent variable data based on said data type and said report key, wherein said independent variable data comprises independent variables; automatically joining said dependent variable table and said independent variable data to create a joint table; automatically independently filtering said dependent variables and said independent variables based on said filtering restrictions to produce filtered dependent variables and filtered independent variables within said joint table; automatically performing a statistical analysis of said joint table to find correlation results between said filtered dependent variables and said filtered independent variables; and outputting said correlation results. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
