My dear RM friends,
What is the value of the Akaike information criterion when using Auto Model?
Thanks for the feedback!
Sven

    This is probably another question for @mschmitz but I don't believe there is an automatic way of outputting AIC in RapidMiner for any model.  It is a performance that is available inside a select few ML algorithm operators but there is no general performance operator for it.

    You are right.  AIC is a bit model-specific since you would need the number of parameters of the model which is not always trivial to get in a generic way (and I am not sure how I would calculate AIC for most of the AM models...).  So I think AIC won't make it into AM anytime soon ;-)
