In the AI Assistant panel, the "show source <name>" command displays a list of Fields and their "Concepts". 

Does anyone know where I can find more information about the terms which appear in that Concepts column including, for example:
Categorical
HasOutlier
And, LowValueRepetition.

Hi,

These are statistical terms that reflect what was found during the "analyze" stage when the data was being scanned. You can probably find the first two (regarding categorical values and outliers) in a glossary of statistical terms, such as the one Berkeley holds:

https://www.stat.berkeley.edu/~stark/SticiGui/Text/gloss.htm

For the third term, I'm guessing basically it means that the values found were mostly unique, so there are very few repetitions of values in the data item.

Cheers!

MF.
Meep!

Thanks MF for your leads. 

One of the Cognos Product Managers @ IBM just said that these terms deserve to be in the published guide - they are not presently - and IBM will try to get them added in the next release.
