Build (Regression)

The Build tab enables you to specify or change the characteristics of the models to build. To edit the characteristics of the model to build, follow these steps:

1. In the Target field, select a target from the drop-down 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. In the Case ID field, select one attribute from the drop-down list. This attribute must uniquely identify a case.

   
   

   Note: A case ID is not required. However, if you do not specify a case ID, then the processing will be slower. A 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

   • To delete any model, select the model and click .

   • To add models, click . The Add Model (Regression) dialog box opens.

   • To edit a model, click . The Advanced Settings for Regression Models dialog box opens.

   • To copy an existing model, select the model and click

4. Click OK.

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 section in of Regression node Properties pane. You can instead use a Test Node and a test data source to test the model.
