ExampleSet to Weights

Synopsis

This operator converts an ExampleSet to a weight vector.

Description

This operator takes an ExampleSet and converts it into a weight vector. The ExampleSet has to have an attribute holding the name of the weights, and an attribute holding the actual weights.

The result of the Weights to Data operator can be used as an input to this operator. The resulting weight vector can be used for example by the Select by Weights operator.

If the attribute holding the name of the weights has duplicates an User Error is thrown. Use the Remove Duplicates operator to fix this.
