  • Statistical comparator interface
    Publication number: 20030112234
    Abstract: A Statistical Comparator Interface provides a user with the capability to reduce vast amounts of raw data into a readily navigable and quickly comprehendible form. The Statistical Comparator Interface is embodied in two basic stages. In a data compilation stage, a compilation module, which is preferably implemented with computer software, receives the raw data and compiles the raw data into a format that is readily navigable by a navigation engine. This may include expanding the data through statistical computations and arranging the data in a data matrix complete with hierarchal indices. In a navigation stage, the navigation engine is employed to allow a user to generate data profiles from among the formatted data, including selecting a peer group with selected characteristics and selecting statistical comparisons to be calculated and displayed for the selected peer group.
