public class CrossValidationSplitResultProducer
extends CrossValidationResultProducer

Carries out one split of a repeated k-fold cross-validation, using the set SplitEvaluator to generate some results. Note that the run number is actually the nth split of a repeated k-fold cross-validation, i.e. if k=10, run number 100 is the 10th fold of the 10th cross-validation run. This producer's sole purpose is to allow more fine-grained distribution of cross-validation experiments. If the class attribute is nominal, the dataset is stratified.

Valid options are:

 -X <number of folds>
  The number of folds to use for the cross-validation.
  (default 10)
 

 -D
 Save raw split evaluator output.
 

 -O <file/directory name/path>
  The filename where raw output will be stored.
  If a directory name is specified then then individual
  outputs will be gzipped, otherwise all output will be
  zipped to the named file. Use in conjuction with -D. (default splitEvalutorOut.zip)
 

 -W <class name>
  The full class name of a SplitEvaluator.
  eg: weka.experiment.ClassifierSplitEvaluator
 

 Options specific to split evaluator weka.experiment.ClassifierSplitEvaluator:
 

 -W <class name>
  The full class name of the classifier.
  eg: weka.classifiers.bayes.NaiveBayes
 

 -C <index>
  The index of the class for which IR statistics
  are to be output. (default 1)
 

 -I <index>
  The index of an attribute to output in the
  results. This attribute should identify an
  instance in order to know which instances are
  in the test set of a cross validation. if 0
  no output (default 0).
 

 -P
  Add target and prediction columns to the result
  for each fold.
 

 Options specific to classifier weka.classifiers.rules.ZeroR:
 

 -D
  If set, classifier is run in debug mode and
  may output additional info to the console
 

All options after -- will be passed to the split evaluator.

CrossValidationSplitResultProducer

public CrossValidationSplitResultProducer()

Method Details

globalInfo

public String globalInfo()

Returns a string describing this result producer

Overrides:

globalInfo in class CrossValidationResultProducer

Returns:

a description of the result producer suitable for displaying in the explorer/experimenter gui

doRunKeys

public void doRunKeys(int run)
               throws Exception

Gets the keys for a specified run number. Different run numbers correspond to different randomizations of the data. Keys produced should be sent to the current ResultListener

Specified by:

doRunKeys in interface ResultProducer

Overrides:

doRunKeys in class CrossValidationResultProducer

Parameters:

run - the run number to get keys for.

Throws:

Exception - if a problem occurs while getting the keys

doRun

public void doRun(int run)
           throws Exception

Gets the results for a specified run number. Different run numbers correspond to different randomizations of the data. Results produced should be sent to the current ResultListener

Specified by:

doRun in interface ResultProducer

Overrides:

doRun in class CrossValidationResultProducer

Parameters:

run - the run number to get results for.

Throws:

Exception - if a problem occurs while getting the results

toString

public String toString()

Gets a text descrption of the result producer.

Overrides:

toString in class CrossValidationResultProducer

Returns:

a text description of the result producer.

getRevision

public String getRevision()

Returns the revision string.

Specified by:

getRevision in interface RevisionHandler

Overrides:

getRevision in class CrossValidationResultProducer

Returns:

the revision
