In simple terms, Simpson’s Paradox occurs when a trend appears in subgroups but disappears or is reversed when subgroups are combined into a single dataset. Knowledge Studio supports detection of this statistical phenomenon. In this short overview video, you will see an example of how Simpson’s Paradox can manifest itself and how you can use Knowledge Studio to detect its presence automatically.
