YAGGA - attribute constructions

danjeharry

Hey,

How do I recreate the attribute constructions generated by YAGGA onto a new test dataset if some of the attribute constructions are based on generated attributes which are no longer in the original example set? (e.g. gensym100 = Attribute1 + gensym99, but gensym99 is not defined in the attribute construction data).

Thanks.

Hi,

below there is a small sample process which first generates some attributes, then stores their constructions to a file, rereads them and applies them to another dataset. Please be sure to adjust the paths in the Read/Write Constructions operators.
