Selecting samples for attributes whose values contributes the most
Vanlal
New Altair Community Member
I have a attribute job which is a label and has 15 different values.
Out of 1000 samples, 7 values contributes to 950 samples and remaining 8 values contributes to 50 samples.
I want to use only the 950 samples (i.e 7 values only) and ignore the rest.
How do I select the values of the label which contributes the most to the sample?
This chosen-not chosen combination may change ( 8-7,10-5,12-3 etc) depending on the data.
I tried the following approach
1) Count number of occurrence of the values in the whole table (stuck at this point)
2) Rank the values (have no idea)
3) Filter out the chosen-not chosen values (have no idea)
If a better approach/way can be suggested , I will be very grateful
I have the following table
I tried to count the number of occurrence of the values in the whole table which should look like this
I tried Generate Aggregation but it is updating it wrong

Hi @Vanlal ,you were on the right track. If you want to you can use Aggregate and calculate count(Job) for every Job. The trick is then to join this with your original table.Maybe more simple is to use the Replace Rare Values operator, which is part of the operator toolbox extension. It just allows you replace every value which is less frequent than X with a value like Other. You can then just filter on it. The two options look like this:
And here is the process for you to copy (after you installed Operator Toolbox, otherwise you cannot use Replace Rare).Best,Martin<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><process version="9.7.002">

taken dynamically instead of choosing a value for them to be filtered.
If the count was 218,150,156,90,80,40,30,20,1,21,1,11, if i take mean i.e 68.16.
I try to take examples above this count only..(i don't know whether this approach is good or not.. Any other approach is welcomed)
So i extract a macro JobCount to take the mean of count of the job and use this for the Filter Example
Replace Rare values threshold value cannot be set to this macro value.

Hi @Vanlal ,I like your solution and this is what I would go for.I think your problem with Replace Rare Values is, that it wants you to add a integer value, but your value is a real value. So you would need to add another Generate Macro to round the value. I think Aggregate, ExtractMacro, Filter Example and Join is the way to go. This is very similar to what you would do in a SQL-Query.Best,Martin0
