DESCRIPTION (adapted from the applicant's abstract): Medical researchers and teachers use statistical analysis in diverse medical fields, yet current statistical software systems offer little help to people untrained in biostatistics. The applicants propose to develop ADVISE, a visual environment for data analysis, which has extensive guidance capabilities. The goal is to allow medical researchers who are not biostatisticians to examine, model and make inferences from their own data. ADVISE creates a direct manipulation interface for statistical analysis. Using data and function icons on an interactive workmap the user can construct, modify and save an analysis. ADVISE achieves an appealing uniformity through this visual analysis paradigm. Every stage in the analysis can be visualized by simply pointing at the icon, and an analysis can be modified simply by changing icon parameters. Guidance is embedded into every aspect of the system: context-sensitive hypertext gives help in using the system, setting parameters, and interpreting results, and on-line documentation gives "just-in-time" statistical advice. ADVISE is extensible; hence, it provides an enabling technology for rapid and easy transfer of new statistical methods into the hands of medical researchers. ADVISE is entirely modular and as technology advances, it is possible to upgrade the statistical, hypertext, database, and graphics technology.

描述(改编自申请人的摘要)：医学研究人员 教师在不同的医学领域使用统计分析，但 目前的统计软件系统对人们的帮助很小 没有受过生物统计学方面的训练。申请者建议制定建议， 可视化的数据分析环境，具有广泛的指导性 能力。目标是让不是这样的医学研究人员 生物统计学家根据自己的情况进行检查、建模和推论 数据。 ADVISE创建用于统计分析的直接操作界面。 使用交互式工作地图上的数据和功能图标，用户可以 构建、修改和保存分析。建议实现了一个吸引人的 通过这种可视分析范例实现一致性。世界上每一个阶段 分析可以通过简单地指向图标和一个 只需更改图标参数即可修改分析。导向 嵌入到系统的各个方面：上下文相关的超文本 在使用系统、设置参数和解释方面提供帮助 结果，在线文档给出了“即时”统计数据 建议。 Adise是可扩展的；因此，它为快速 并轻松地将新的统计方法转移到医疗机构手中 研究人员。咨询完全是模块化的，随着技术的进步，它 可以升级统计、超文本、数据库和 图形技术。
