How to ignore a column?

Legacy User

Hi all,

My table is a csv file with columns X1,X2,Y1,Y2, and I would like to fit separately Y1 = f(X1,X2) and then Y2 = f(X1,X2).

How do I tell the rapid miner to ignore the column Y2 when fitting the Y1?

Hello Victor

using (for example) FeatureNameFilter" switches Attributes off. If you want to perform both fittings within a single process, I further the suggest the usage of "IOMultiplier" and "IOSelector" (see manual for details)

something like this:

<operator name="Root" class="Process" expanded="yes">
    <operator name="IOMultiplier" class="IOMultiplier">
        <parameter key="io_object"	value="ExampleSet"/>
    </operator>
    <operator name="skip_Y1" class="FeatureNameFilter">
        <parameter key="skip_features_with_name"	value="Y1"/>
    </operator>
    <operator name="here_goes_Y2=f(X1,X2)" class="OperatorChain" expanded="yes">
    </operator>
    <operator name="IOSelector" class="IOSelector">
        <parameter key="io_object"	value="ExampleSet"/>
    </operator>
    <operator name="skip_Y2" class="FeatureNameFilter">
        <parameter key="skip_features_with_name"	value="Y2"/>
    </operator>
    <operator name="here_goes_Y1=f(X1,X2)" class="OperatorChain" expanded="yes">
    </operator>
</operator>

hope this was helpful

greetings
