Build (Regression)

The Build tab allows you to specify or change the characteristics of the models to build. Follow these steps:

  1. Select the Target from the Target list. The list consist of attributes from the table or view specified in the Data Source node that is connected to the build node.

    You must specify a target. All models in the node have the same target.

  2. Select the Case ID. Select one attribute from the Case ID list; this attribute must uniquely identify a case.


    Note:

    A Case ID is not required, however, if you do not specify a Case ID, processing will be slower. See No Case ID for information.

    Case ID is required to generate GLM diagnostics.


    If you specify a Case ID, all models in the node have the same Case ID.

  3. In the Models Settings list, select which models you want to build. You can build Support Vector machine (SVM) and Generalized Linear Models (GLM). You can delete any of these models by selecting the model and clicking delete selected items

    To add models, click add items

    See Add Model (Regression) for more information.

    To copy an existing model, select the model and click copy selected model.

The default is to test the model using a test data set created by splitting the build data set. If you do not want to test the model in this way, go to the Test (Regression) of Regression Properties. You can instead use a Test Node and a test data source to test the model.
