CART® Features

  • Hotspot detection to discover the most important parts of the tree and the corresponding tree rules
  • Variable importance measures to understand the most important variables in the tree
  • Deploy the model and generate predictions in real-time or otherwise
  • User defined splits at any point in the tree
  • Differential lift (also called “uplift” or “incremental response”) modeling for assessing the efficacy of a treatment
  • Automation tools for model tuning and other experiments including
    • Automatic recursive feature elimination for advanced variable selection
    • Experiment with the prior probabilities to obtain a model that achieves better accuracy rates for the more important class
    • Perform repeated cross validation
    • Build CART models on bootstrap samples
    • Build two linked models, where the first one predicts a binary event while the second one predicts a numeric value
    • Discover the impact of different learning and testing partitions

MARS® Features

  • Graphically understand how variables affect the model response
  • Determine the importance of a variable or set of interacting variables
  • Deploy the model and generate predictions in real-time or otherwise
  • Automation tools for model tuning and other experiments including
    • Automatic recursive feature elimination for advanced variable selection
    • Automatically assess the impact of allowing interactions in the model
    • Easily find the best minimum span value
    • Perform repeated cross validation
    • Discover the impact of different learning and testing partitions

TreeNet® Features

  • Graphically understand how variables affect the model response with partial dependency plots
  • Regression loss functions: least squares, least absolute deviation, quantile, Huber-M, Cox survival, Gamma, Negative Binomial, Poisson, and Tweedie
  • Classification loss functions: binary or multinomial
  • Differential lift (also called “uplift” or “incremental response”) modeling
  • Column subsampling to improve model performance and speed up the runtime.
  • Regularized Gradient Boosting (RGBOOST) to increase accuracy.
  • RuleLearner: build interpretable regression models by combining TreeNet gradient boosting and regularized regression (LASSO, Elastic Net, Ridge etc.)
  • ISLE: Build smaller, more efficient gradient boosting models using regularized regression (LASSO, Elastic Net, Ridge, etc.)
  • Variable Interaction Discovery Control
    • Determine definitively whether or not interactions of any degree need to be included
    • Control the interactions allowed or disallowed in the model with Minitab’s patented interaction control language
  • Discover the most important interactions in the model
  • Calibration tools for rare-event modeling
  • Automation tools for model tuning and other experiments including
    • Automatic recursive feature elimination for advanced variable selection
    • Experiment with different learn rates automatically
    • Control the extent of interactions occurring in the model
    • Build two linked models, where the first one predictions a binary event while the second one predicts a numeric value
    • Find the best parameters in your regularized gradient boosting model
    • Perform a stochastic search for the core gradient boosting parameters
    • Discover the impact of different learning and testing partitions

Random Forests® Features

  • Use for classification, regression, or clustering
  • Outlier detection
  • Proximity heat map and multi-dimensional scaling for graphically determining clusters in classification problems (binary or multinomial)
  • Parallel Coordinates Plot for a better understanding of what levels of predictor values lead to a particular class assignment
  • Unsupervised learning: Random Forest creates the proximity matrix and hierarchical clustering techniques are then applied
  • Variable importance measures to understand the most important variables in the model
  • Deploy the model and generate predictions in real-time or otherwise
  • Automation tools for model tuning and other experiments including
    • Automatic recursive feature elimination for advanced variable selection
    • Easily fine tune the random subset size taken at each split in each tree
    • Assess the impact of different bootstrap sample sizes
    • Discover the impact of different learning and testing partitions
