[Solved] Ranking percentages by ID and label

Kate_Strydom

Hi,

Can anyone assist me please!

I need to create a new attribute in RapidMiner called "Rank" which ranks the percentages in descending order grouped by the unique ID and Category.

unique ID Category Percentage Rank
001A News 0.23 1
001A Weather 0.15 2
001A Sports 0.09 3
001B Weather 0.64 1
001B News 0.25 2
001B Entertainment 0.02 3

Hi,

you can use Sort together with Generate ID to solve your problem. If you need to calculate the percentages first, you can use Aggregate.

Attached is a small process using the iris dataset and rank using the attribute a1.

I hope this helps!

Best,

Martin

Edit: I overlooked that you want to do it grouped by your unique IDs. Here is an example process on sonar. The difference is basicly the loop

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the quick reply.

The problem is that it just replaces my Unique Id attribute with the generated ID, and no grouping takes place.

so I have operators
retrieve data - set role - sort by percentage - sort by unique ID - generate ID.

I need the generate ID to also group, instead of replace.

Thanks

Regards
Kate

Hi Kate,

i am not completly aware of your problem.

Am I right, that the generate ID operator "deletes" your UniqueID attribute? That might happen if the role of UniqueID is ID. Simply change the Role before to "something else". Then you can do the ranking. Afterwards set the role of UniqueID back to id.

Best,

Martin

HI Martin,

I will try this.

I am trying to implement the script you sent. I used a execute script. pasted the edited code you sent in it. Linked it to the results. It gives an error - undefined macro: loop_value.

I presume I need to insert the loop value operator between sort and generate ID operator?

Will let you know how it works.

Regards
Kate

MartinLiebig

there is no need to use execute script. The XML code is a complete script. You can import it using the import dialogue or by pasting it into the XML - view. Be sure not to overwrite your process with this!

Kate_Strydom

Sorry Martin,

It still does not work

I must be doing something wrong. I also cannot see what the code you sent is supposed to do because of the error.

Please help.

Regards
Kate

Maybe this thread: http://rapid-i.com/rapidforum/index.php/topic,4654.0.html helps you.Especially the last two sections.

Hi Martin,

Thank you

so very much. I managed to follow your instructions.

Sorry I am so new and I did not see the red saying that your post had come through. Hence some of the communication is out of order.

I have successfully implemented the sonar code as per your instructions. I have also manage to successfully implement the code and the Loop value operator in my process. It is a very neat operator.

Your advice has been extremely helpful after I have spent so much time searching and trying to do this. I would never had succeeded without the loop value and the filter macro. Wish I understood how to implement this in other areas of my RapidMiner processes.

Regards
Kate

Hi Kate,

Great! It is always a pleasure to help.

There is some documentation around. E.g. https://rapidminer.com/documentation/ . I personally like the book "Data Mining for the masses" which is linked there. Furthermore there are several youtube sites etc. One of our consultants has his own youtube-channel. See: https://www.youtube.com/user/neuralmarkettrends1

But if you have further questions feel free to ask in this board.

Best,

Martin
