What's new in Qlik Sense August 2021

Augmented analytics

Mutual Information Key Driver Analysis

Insight Advisor can now analyze and score the mutual information between fields. This provides a measure of the influence that one field has on another, allowing you to understand which fields are drivers of another target field.

You can also now calculate mutual information between targets and drivers in charts with the MutualInfo function. This allows analysis such as pair-wise mutual information analysis and driver breakdown by value.
