Feature Selection Analysis - Quick Tab

Click the Variables button to display a standard variables selection dialog. Like in Statistica Data Mining, you can select continuous and categorical dependent variables, and continuous and categorical predictors. Continuous variables are those that are measured on a continuous scale (e.g., Height or Weight); categorical variables contain indicators, codes, or text values to denote membership in a group or class (e.g., Gender: Male, Female). Different statistics will be computed for categorical dependent variables (for classification) and continuous dependent variables (for regression-type problems); refer also to Feature Selection and Variable Screening Computational Details.

Click the Counts variable button to display a standard variables selection dialog where you can specify a variable with counts (such as in Statistica Data Mining). The values in this variable will be used during the computations as a simple case multiplier.
