Weights not being calculated

Use the operator Weight by Correlation instead of the correlation matrix. 

Take a look at the attached process.

Thanks for the reply.  With the configuration you suggested I get a 'label is missing' errror. 

What I'd like to do is create correlations - and then isolate the variables that are highly correlated. 

I'm following this youtube video and attempting to re-create this process flow

Ooops - 

That means you haven't defined roles for the different variables. Which is the varaible you are trying to predict? That is the label. Stick a Set Role operator between the ReadCSV and the Correlation Matrix.

Hi Ally,

Would you mind sharing the dataset you are trying to analyze? The issue may be specific to the dataset.

Attached is the similar process that I have built with a sample dataset for your reference. Also here is the instruction on How to Import a repository in RapidMiner
