Problems reading HierarchicalClusterModel

Hello together,

I have created a model with AgglomerativeClustering and saved it as a file. It is a DendogramHierarchicalClusterModel as defined in AgglomerativeClustering. If I want to load the model with ClusterModelReader, I receive an exception:

[Fatal] Process failed: operator cannot be executed (com.rapidminer.operator.clustering.DendogramHierarchicalClusterModel cannot be cast to com.rapidminer.operator.clustering.ClusterModel). Check the log messages...

If I look into ClusterModelReader, I see that it casts ClusterModel on the loaded object (function read(), line "return (ClusterModel)ioReader.read();"). And DendogramHierarchicalClusterModel is not an extension of ClusterModel.

I have the version 4.5 and saw the same source for 4.6. Is it correct?

Regards,
Igor

Hi Igor,
I would suggest using the IOWriter and Reader instead. I think the problem should be fixed anyway.

Hi Sebastian,

thanks, it works now! Another suggestion: maybe you can handle the missing ID attribute for AgglomerativeClustering in a more intelligent / understandable way - if I just apply this clustering for my data without ID attribute, I get a NullPointerException. Only after the exact look into the code I understood that IdTagging was required.

For DBScanAlgorithm I see in the manual e.g. "If no id attribute is present, the operator will create one" - maybe it's a good way also for other clustering methods..

Cheers,
Igor

Hi,
this has already be done for the RapidMiner 5.0
