How to compare data before and after missing values handling?

Dear everyone,

I'm learning RapidMiner using a NBA dataset from data.world. I noticed that there are missing data in the 3P% column. The way I filterd out these 11 rows was clicking missing_attritubes in the top-right.

So I used Raplace Missing Values to set missing data to 0. The process worked successfully but what I want to know is: How could I show only these 11 rows after replacing missing to 0? Because after replacing, I can't filter data by selecting missing_attritubes.

Can anyone help me on this case? I've been stucked for several days... Do I need to do any change in my process or there are other solutions?

My process:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><process version="8.0.001">
  <operator activated="true" class="retrieve" compatibility="8.0.001" expanded="true" height="68" name="Retrieve" width="90" x="45" y="34">
    <parameter key="repository_entry" value="//PredictNBARookie/Data/nba_logreg"/>
  </operator>
</process>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><process version="8.0.001">
  <operator activated="true" class="replace_missing_values" compatibility="8.0.001" expanded="true" height="103" name="Replace Missing Values" width="90" x="179" y="34">

    <parameter key="except_block_type" value="value_matrix_row_start"/>
    <parameter key="invert_selection" value="false"/>
    <parameter key="include_special_attributes" value="false"/>
    <parameter key="default" value="zero"/>
    <list key="columns"/>
  </operator>
</process>

Thanks in advance!

Hi @EdisonLee,

I used the Generate Attribute operator to create a copy of your attribute 3P% named 3P% back_up.

and then I used the Join Operator to join this created attribute to your dataset.

Here the results after filtering :

Hi @lionelderkrikor

Thank you for helping me. This is a very nice way to achieve my goal. I can easily understand how you did that. But I don't know why I couldn't let your process run on my computer. How should I connect operators?

HI @EdisonLee,

It's weird, it's seems that the Join operator is considered as "deprecated" by RapidMiner.

Try the following operations :

- Delete this Join operator.

- Search the Join operator thanks to the operator search box.

- Drag and drop the Join operator in the process window.

- Connect manually the Join operator to the two Generate ID operators.

I hope it helps,

Best regards,

Lionel

Dear @lionelderkrikor

The process worked after I followed your instructions. Your solution really solves my question. Thanks again to give me different thought to do data processing in RapidMiner. :smileyhappy:

Lee
