Data Mining - Data Mining - Workspaces - Data Miner - General Neural Network Explorer - Advanced Multiple Architectures Project

  1. Select the Data Mining tab.
  2. In the Tools group, click Workspaces.
  3. From the General Neural Network Explorer submenu, select Advanced Multiple Architectures Project to display a project workspace (template) with several pre-arranged nodes for applying neural networks architectures to regression, classification, and clustering problems.

This project can be further augmented to include any of the nodes available in the Neural Network Architectures folder of the Node Browser, or by other nodes available in Statistica Data Miner.

See Data Mining with Statistica, in particular the topic Structure and User Interface of Statistica Data Miner, for additional details.

To use the pre-arranged project as-is:

  1. Select a data source.
  2. Specify the continuous and categorical dependent and predictor variables for the analyses.
  3. Connect the input data to the respective node.

For regression and classification problems:

  1. Start the analyses by connecting the data to the SANN Regression, Automated Network Search (ANS) node or to the SANN Classification, Automated Network Search (ANS).
  2. Run the project.

The Automated Network Search (ANS) automatically evaluates several applicable neural network architectures of varying complexities, to find the best networks (or single network) for the data.
