Caratteristiche di Prism

Comprehensive Analysis e Statistiche potenti, semplificate

Organizza i dati in modo efficace

Prism è formattato specificamente per le analisi che si desidera eseguire, compresa l’analisi di dati quantitativi e categorici. In questo modo è più facile inserire correttamente i dati, scegliere le analisi adatte e creare grafici straordinari.

Analisi della dimensione del campione e della potenza

Ottimizza i tuoi esperimenti fin dall’inizio determinando con precisione la dimensione del campione necessaria per l’effetto previsto, oppure studia l’effetto più piccolo che riesci a rilevare con una dimensione del campione limitata.

Snellisci il tuo processo di ricerca, risparmia risorse preziose e aumenta l’affidabilità dei tuoi risultati.

Esegui la giusta analisi

Evita il gergo statistico. Prism presenta con un linguaggio chiaro un’ampia libreria di analisi, da quelle più comuni a quelle più specifiche: T-Test, ANOVA a una, due e tre vie, regressione lineare e regressione non lineare, dose-response curves, binary logistic regression, analisi di sopravvivenza, principal component analysis e molto altro ancora.

Ogni analisi è accompagnata da una checklist che aiuta a comprendere i presupposti statistici richiesti e a confermare la scelta del test appropriato.

Ottieni un aiuto concreto mentre si va avanti

Riduci la complessità delle statistiche. La guida online di Prism supera le tue aspettative. A quasi ogni passaggio, accedi a migliaia di pagine delle Guide Utente di Prism. Impara da lezioni video, guide e materiali didattici tramite il Centro Risorse. Esplora il Portfolio Grafici e impara a creare un’ampia gamma di tipi di grafici.

I set di dati dei tutorial ti aiutano anche a capire perché dovresti eseguire determinate analisi e come interpretare i risultati.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

One-Click Regression Analysis

Nessun altro programma semplifica il curve fitting come Prism. Seleziona un’equazione e Prism fa il resto: adatta la curva, visualizza una tabella dei risultati e dei parametri della funzione, disegna la curva sul grafico e interpola i valori sconosciuti.

Concentrati sulla ricerca, non sul software

Prism gestisce la codifica per te. Grafici e risultati vengono aggiornati automaticamente in tempo reale. Qualsiasi modifica ai dati e alle analisi – inserimento diretto di dati, eliminazione di dati errati, correzione di errori di battitura o modifica delle scelte di analisi – si riflette istantaneamente su risultati, grafici e layout.

Concentrati sulla tua ricerca, non sul tuo software

Prism gestisce la codifica per te. Grafici e risultati vengono aggiornati automaticamente in tempo reale. Qualsiasi modifica ai dati e alle analisi (inserimento diretto di dati, omissione di dati errati, correzione di errori di battitura o modifica delle scelte di analisi) si riflette istantaneamente nei risultati, nei grafici e nei layout.

Automatizza il lavoro senza programmare

Aggiungere automaticamente multiple pairwise comparisons all’analisi con un solo clic. Per le opzioni di personalizzazione di queste linee e asterischi, è sufficiente fare nuovamente clic sul pulsante della barra degli strumenti. Se si apportano modifiche ai dati o all’analisi, i risultati visualizzati sul grafico si aggiornano automaticamente.

Il modo più veloce per graficare e condividere con eleganza il tuo lavoro

Innumerevoli modi per personalizzare i grafici

Concentrati sulla storia dei tuoi dati, non sulla manipolazione del software. Prism semplifica la creazione dei grafici che desiderate. Scegli il tipo di grafico e personalizzane ogni parte: la disposizione dei dati, lo stile dei punti di dati, le etichette, i caratteri, i colori e molto altro ancora. Le opzioni di personalizzazione sono infinite.

Esplora i tuoi dati

Risparmia tempo e semplifica il flusso di lavoro trasformando i dati sul posto, senza bisogno di fogli di analisi aggiuntivi. Per i dati a variabili multiple, crea nuove variabili calcolate con formule in stile foglio di calcolo. Calcola rapporti, applica logaritmi o normalizza i valori senza uscire dalla tabella dati. I risultati vengono visualizzati come nuove variabili, mantenendo intatti i dati originali e mantenendo connessioni in tempo reale con le variabili sorgente.

Hai notato qualcosa di interessante? Evidenzia un singolo punto dati per esplorarne le proprietà corrispondenti. Personalizza il modo in cui presenti le relazioni nei dati per esplorare efficacemente dataset di grandi dimensioni. Grazie alle solide funzionalità di data wrangling di Prism, puoi iterare rapidamente garantendo che l’analisi si basi su dati puliti e ben strutturati.

Esportazione di grafici di qualità editoriale in un clic

Riduci i tempi di pubblicazione. Prism consente di personalizzare le esportazioni (tipo di file, risoluzione, trasparenza, dimensioni, spazio colore RGB/CMYK) per soddisfare i requisiti delle riviste. Salva le tue impostazioni predefinite per risparmiare tempo.

Migliora la collaborazione

Evita le lunghe e caotiche conversazioni via email e usa Prism Cloud per condividere, visualizzare e collaborare ai tuoi progetti Prism, che si trovino dall’altra parte del corridoio o dall’altra parte del mondo. Carica i file direttamente da Prism o dal tuo browser e assegna ruoli flessibili all’area di lavoro, dai visualizzatori ai gestori dei contenuti, per controllare con precisione l’accesso.

Proteggi l’interoperabilità e la riutilizzabilità dei tuoi risultati con il formato file open access di Prism. Utilizzando formati standard di settore (CSV, PNG, JSON, ecc.), puoi garantire che i tuoi progetti possano essere utilizzati al di fuori di Prism, aprendo nuove possibilità per i tuoi flussi di lavoro e le tue integrazioni di dati.

New Graph Types for Multiple Variables Graphs

Included with Prism Pro and Enterprise

Prism 11.1.0 significantly expands the graph options available when working with multiple variables data tables. Users can now create a broader range of graph types that pair one categorical axis with one continuous axis, bringing the expressive power previously available in legacy table formats into the modern multiple variables workflow.

Bars graphs
Box-and-whisker plots
Violin plots
Column scatter plots
Additional graphical data objects to support these graph types (column error bars, summary symbols, summary value connecting lines, and more)

Why it matters: Multiple variables tables are the foundation of Prism’s most flexible analysis workflows. Expanding the available graph types means researchers can visualize their data in the form that best fits their experimental design, without restructuring tables or switching to legacy formats.

Categorical Level Ordering

Included with Prism Pro and Enterprise

Categorical variables within multiple variables data tables consist of multiple different levels/values. Prism 11.1.0 offers updated controls from within the Format Data table dialog to specify the level order for the levels of each categorical variable on the data table. Choose from one of the pre-defined sorting methods (entry-based, row-based, frequency, or name), quickly reverse the defined level order, or manually rearrange the level orders to suit your needs. Additionally, define the display order of categorical levels in multiple variables graphs, providing complete control over the arrangement and display of your visualization. Prism now provides:

Custom ordering of categorical levels in graphs independently of the defined table order
Custom ordering reflected in analysis outputs
Intuitive interfaces for defining and adjusting level sequences

Why it matters: The order in which categories appear shapes how readers interpret a figure. Placing a control group first, arranging time points chronologically, or sequencing treatment arms by dose gives researchers direct control over the story their data tells.

Streamlined Variable Selection in Multiple Variables Analysis Dialogs

Included with Prism Pro and Enterprise

The Data tab in the Parameters dialogs for Simple Survival Analysis, t tests, Multifactor ANOVA, and Nonlinear Regression performed from multiple variables data now lets you narrow the available variables list to a specific variable type, and applies color coding to help you identify variables at a glance. Limiting the list to categorical or continuous variables makes it easier to find and assign the right variable for each role in the analysis, reducing clutter and the chance of assigning the wrong variable to the wrong slot.

Narrow the available variables list by type (categorical or continuous) in the Data tab of supported analysis dialogs
Color coding applied to variable entries for quick visual identification
Supported analyses: Simple Survival Analysis, t tests, Multifactor ANOVA, Nonlinear Regression from multiple variables data

Why it matters: Multiple variables tables can contain dozens of variables across different types. Narrowing the list by type and color-coding the variable entries makes it faster to find the right variable and harder to make configuration mistakes, especially in complex analyses with many inputs.

External Browser Activation

Prism now supports browser-based license activation, enabling users to authenticate through their organization’s single sign-on (SSO) infrastructure rather than entering credentials directly in the application.

License activation routed through the system’s default web browser
Compatible with enterprise SSO environments
Reduces friction for organizations with identity management requirements

Why it matters: Many enterprise environments restrict or closely monitor in-app authentication. Browser-based activation lets IT teams apply their standard SSO policies to Prism, simplifying deployment and reducing the support burden for organizations managing licenses at scale.

Requisiti di Sistema di Prism

Prism non ha particolari requisiti e funzionerà bene su qualsiasi computer acquistato negli ultimi anni.

Ecco i dettagli:

Prims for Windows

Operating System. Runs under the 64-bit versions of Windows 10 and 11. Prism 10 does not support 32-bit editions of Windows.
CPU. x86-64 compatible. Note: Prism Windows is not currently offered in a version compiled to run natively on ARM chipsets (i.e. Qualcomm Snapdragon). However, Prism Windows can run on ARM-powered devices using x64 emulation which is now generally available with Windows 11
RAM. For comfortable performance and responsiveness, Prism requires the following amount of RAM:
- 2 GB RAM for up to 2 million data cells in currently open Prism files
- 4 GB RAM for 2-8 million data cells
- 8 GB RAM for 8-16 million data cells
- 16 GB RAM for greater than 16 million cells
Display. The minimum display resolution is 800 x 600, but the recommended display resolution for comfortable work is 1366 x 768.
HDD. Requires about 100 MB (megabytes) of space on the hard drive.
Internet. Prism must connect to the internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect upon every launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue operating, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes sooner).
Additional Information. Prism requires that the Microsoft Edge WebView2 rendering component be installed to correctly display pages in the Welcome Dialog. This is already installed by Microsoft on most new devices, but will be included with the Prism installation if it is missing.

Prims for Mac

Operating System. Runs under macOS X 10.15 (Catalina) or later. If you use macOS 10.14, Prism will launch and seems to run OK, but we haven’t tested Prism thoroughly under this version of macOS and can’t provide much support. If you use 10.14, we urge you to update MacOS.
CPU. Prism Mac is delivered as a Universal Binary and will run natively on both Apple silicon and Intel-based Mac computers.
RAM. There is no particular requirement for RAM on Mac. Prism will run fine on all standard configurations of Macs manufactured by Apple.
Display. Requires a display with a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 pixels.
HDD. Requires about 130 MB (megabytes) of space on the hard drive..
Internet. Prism must connect to the internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect upon every launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue operating, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes sooner).
