Definition

Use

You can use this parameter with the function types Linear Regression and Nonlinear Regression to restrict the data area with which the scoring function is to be trained. The scoring function is only defined for combinations of discrete values for which the number of data records in the amount of training data attains or exceeds the parameter.

Only whole numbers are permitted. Default value: 100.

Dependencies

This parameter can only be considered if you have selected the function types Linear Regression and Nonlinear Regression.

Example

A model has both discrete fields Occupation Group and Vehicle Category. The amount of training data contains 83 data records for the combination of values "Computer Scientist" and "Sports Car". If a parameter of 50 is set, then the scoring function is trained with this data area. If the default value of 100 is taken as the parameter, then the scoring function is not trained with this data area and the definition area of the trained scoring function excludes data records with this combination of values.
