Machine Learning in Dashboards

This set of features introduces machine learning functionality in dashboards to enhance data visualization and decision-making. This experimental feature is designed to be accessible to all users, from business executives to data scientists, offering ML insights with a single click. The one click solution allows you to generate forecasts and detect anomalies effortlessly, though it is not a substitute for comprehensive ML tools and relies on high-quality data for accurate results.

Detect Outliers

To create a visualization which detects outliers, you need to create a line chart that includes the string #anomalies in its name when you are creating it in the Analytical Designer. Only one # string per visualization is allowed. You can later rename it in the Dashboard edit view.

Steps:

  1. Open the dashboard in Edit mode.

  2. Open the visualization’s context menu and select Detect outliers.

    Click the ellipsis button in the top right corner of a visualization to open the context menu. The Detect outliers option is near the bottom of the menu.
  3. Set a sensitivity and click Apply.

    Outlier detection settings dialog with a Sensitivity field and an Apply button in the bottom right corner. Sensitivity is used to adjust the detection threshold for anomalies in the data.

The algorithm detects and highlights data point outliers:
