Data mining software

The Q-YIELD stand-alone data mining software module, integrated with YieldManager software through structured query language, helps engineers to identify critical variables that affect yield. Its capabilities include: finding complex relationships to both nonlinear and interaction effects; handling large data files with no limitations on file size; analyzing hundreds of variables in minutes on a PC; providing nonparametric analysis and making no data distribution assumptions; working with all data types (numeric, non-numeric, and date variables); and working with noisy, non-normal data, even under missing value and outline formats.
