Hi,

Sorry! I just had realized the poll is had created was supposed to be a post, but I couldn't neither delete the poll nor this post.

I have to cluster texts (course lectures) into different categories using hierarchical clustering.
My data input is from mysql database.

1st question, what format does my data have to be in?

I also need to connect RM with the system I work for (nonprofitable org), to trigger it to run automatically after a certain period.
But I have problem with the coding..
I have looked into the documentation, but it's really confusing..
Could you suggest me on where to and what functions in which location that does :
load the data
pick learner type
run process
construct the output model

Thanks so much!

    Hello,

    Sorry! I just realized RM does not accept mysql input . So, I'll use .xml and .txt file format.

    location where file is processed: com/rapidminer/process.java->readProcess();
    location where file is opened : com/rapidminer/gui/mainframe.java-> open();

    1 file for 1 process.

    This information may not be very useful to post.
    but, just in case someone who might need it in the future can start off faster than i.

    I'm using RM4.4

    How do you come to this conclusion? RM certainly supports MySQL.

    location where file is processed: com/rapidminer/process.java->readProcess();
    location where file is opened : com/rapidminer/gui/mainframe.java-> open();

    If you are using this programatically, MainFrame.open() is probably not the right method to call unless you want to spawn a window.

    Cheers,

    Thank you for a reply! I've really have been waited. After a number of people read the thread, no one has answered.

    if it supports mysql, how is the data supposed to be loaded?
    Right now I couldn't do anything but keep tracking the flow of input and output and func calls from gui ,tutorial , sample folder and on and on to see where the input file is actually called. Do you know where I can find what i need then?
