362 <strong>Reliability</strong> <strong>and</strong> Survival Analysis Chapter 19<br />

Univariate Survival Analysis<br />

Save Estimates creates a data table containing survival <strong>and</strong> failure estimates, along with confidence<br />

intervals, <strong>and</strong> other distribution statistics.<br />

Fitting Distributions<br />

For each of the three distributions JMP supports, there is a plot comm<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> a fit comm<strong>and</strong>. Use the plot<br />

comm<strong>and</strong> to see if the event markers seem to follow a straight line. The markers tend to follow a straight<br />

line when the distributional fit is suitable for the data. Then use the fit comm<strong>and</strong>s to estimate the<br />

parameters.<br />
