Select Algorithms

Assisted Modeling provides you with a selection of algorithms to choose from. It recommends different algorithms depending on what kind of problem you want to solve. In this step, you select what algorithms you want to evaluate in the leaderboard.

  1. The card for each algorithm displays its pros and cons, a description, and some use cases. Use this info to make sure you want to evaluate the algorithm.
  2. To evaluate an algorithm, check the box next to its name. If you don't want to evaluate an algorithm, uncheck the box.
  3. Select Run Selected Algorithms.

The Leaderboard

Assisted Modeling generates the leaderboard, which you can use to compare the performance of the algorithms you've selected.

The output in the leaderboard is different, depending on what kind of problem you're solving, but here are the basics for how to navigate the UI:

  • To view info specific to an algorithm, select its card in the Leaderboard section.
  • To view info about how an algorithm performed against the other algorithms, select the Comparison tab.
  • To view info about an algorithm's individual performance, select the Overview tab.
  • To see what features an algorithm valued most, select the Interpretation tab.
  • To remind yourself of the choices you made throughout the Assisted Modeling process, select the Configuration tab.
  • To start over with Assisted Modeling but retain the info that's in the leaderboard, select Create New Model.
  • To show or hide the leaderboard, select Hide Leaderboard or View Leaderboard.

After you've determined what algorithms perform best, you can select which ones you want to add to the Designer canvas as part of a machine-learning pipeline that trains the model:

  1. Check the box next to the name of the algorithm you want to add to the canvas. You should see a count of how many algorithms you've selected.
  2. Select Add Models and Continue to Workflow.
