FAQ

How does the breakpoint detection tool work?

Drag & drop your CSV file onto the blue area above, or select a file from your computer. The file should be in CSV format and it can contain multiple columns. There should be at least one column with dates or times, and one column with numerical values.

Why do I need breakpoint detection?

Statistics is tricky. Sometimes, it looks like your data changed direction at a certain point, or made a sudden jump. But often this could be just random variation. Breakpoint detection helps you find out if the change in your data is very likely to be real.

How do I interpret the results?

Once the calculations and tests are done, the tool will show you a plot of your data with the detected breakpoint marked. It will also generate explanations that help you understand the results.
