Changing Algorithm Settings

All algorithms in Predict have several options and settings associated with them.  Some are specific to the algorithm itself, while others apply more generally to the modeling process. 

When editing a model's settings and clicking the Algorithms & Settings tab, you have the option to associate any number of algorithms with the model (see https://support.lityxiq.com/814659-Model-Settings-Algorithms for more information).  When you add an algorithm, or edit the settings for an algorithm, the Algorithm Options window is displayed.

 

Algorithm Options Tab

Label - Enter a label that will identify this algorithm iteration as it is displayed in performance analyses, model exploration, or other areas of LityxIQ.  By default, the name of the algorithm is used.

Active - Uncheck this box to inactivate this algorithm.  An inactivated algorithm will not be run when the model is executed.  You can also activate and inactivate algorithms from the main Algorithms tab when editing the model settings.

The other options on the Algorithm Options tab are specific to each algorithm.  An explanation of the settings available for each algorithm are found in separate articles (use https://support.lityxiq.com/725682-Machine-Learning-Algorithms as a starting point).

 

Selection & Transformation Tab

The Selection & Transformation tab provides options related to the variable selection process performed by Predict.  See https://support.lityxiq.com/019137-Algorithm-Settings-Selection--Transformation for help with this tab.

 

Advanced Settings Tab

The Advanced Settings tab provides options for other advanced settings related to the modeling process in LityxIQ.  It may be different from one algorithm to the next.
