RFM - nth selection process to create a test sample in Rapid Miner . Can someone assist

cwoo

Given a scored RFM master file , i would like to extract a nth selection test sample . Eg. if the nth slection is 10 then the sample will consist of every 10th record and should create a statistically similar test sample .

400,000 fille will result in a test file 40,00 examples.

I don't claim efficiency or beauty but the code below ought to work.

You are probably aware of this, but there is also a "sample" operator--it doesn't take exactly every nth record, but it does have parameters for taking either an absolute number of records or a percentage randomly, and if you set the random seed then the results will be reproducible. For most purposes, typically a random sample is sufficient (and may even be preferable) compared to a sample based on a heuristic such as "every nth record."

thank you very much .

Quite simple using the generate ID and then generating sample using the modulus function then filter all with mod 0 .

Excellent

Hi,

你可以让它与Filt更有效er Example's option to use an expression right away. With that you can save the overhead of Generate Attribute and adding a new column. You simply enter there an expression that evaluates to true or false, where you can use the mod function on the id as in the example above.

优秀的建议@land

here is an implementation of that suggestion

thanks for refining it
