I tried a simple renaming the label column if name is Iris-setosa, I want to give it another name... how is this done?

Hi Fred,

 

Rename by Replacing is for Attribute names (the column names) not for the actual values. To do that, use the Replace operator.

Hi,

 

Rename by Replacing works exclusively on the column names. It doesn't process the attribute values.

 

Example sets in RapidMiner have a strict table format. You can't just rename an attribute line-wise.

 

You could create a new column for each possible value of the label attribute with a Nominal to Numerical operator:

attribute filter type: single

attribute: label

[+] include special attributes
