Fields Analogy Settings


Setting Analogy Between Fields

A unique feature of  Estard Data Miner is that the Analytical Data can be used by experts to process Queries on various Data Sets.

If the structures (number of Fields and their names) of the tables, selected from the Learning Database and the Analysed Database differ, you can set analogy between Fields. This will allow to apply Analytical Data to any table, selected from the Analysed Database. 

To set the  Analogy Between Fields press the button on the "Analysed Data Set" page to open the "Fields Analogy Settings" dialog:

  • "Rule/Decision Tree Field Name" - the left side of the control contains a list of Fields, found in the "Learning Database" table.
  • "Analysed Database Field Name" - the right side contains a list of Fields that can be set as an analogy. If the program detects Fields of the same names and types, it sets an analogy between them automatically. In case if some Fields do not have a list, this means there are no Fields of the same type in the "Analysed Database" table, and the analogy cannot be set.
  • "Apply Fields Analogy" button - press it to apply all changes.

Note: Analytical Data (Decision Rules and Decision Trees) with Fields that have no analogy will be ignored during Simple Select Queries.
