Nonlinear Regression with GeneXproTools 4.3: Predicting Evaporation

This video shows how to create nonlinear regression models with GeneXproTools 4.3, focusing on: (1) Data analysis and visualization; (2) Creating the baseline multilinear regression model in Excel; (3) Preparing the data for training and testing; (4) Loading the data and creating a model in GeneXproTools; (5) Generating the model code (matlab code, expression tree, and mathematical expression); (6) Deploying and scoring a model in Excel; and (7) Evaluation of the importance of model variables.

Time Series Prediction in Testing Mode

By creating a model in Testing Mode, you have more control over the quality of the model at making predictions. Now in GeneXproTools 4.3, by using the Import Models feature, it’s possible to create a model while in Testing Mode and then import it from a different run primed for prediction. This video shows how to do this in GeneXproTools using the monthly closings of the Dow-Jones industrial index. It also shows the difference between Testing Mode and Prediction Mode in GeneXproTools using a very simple time series example.

Classification Video

This quick tour to Classification uses a well-known dataset for diagnosing breast cancer as either benign (0) or malignant (1). It covers all the basic steps of predictive modeling, including: (1) Loading training and testing data, (2) Creating a model, (3) Evaluating the predictive accuracy of a model, (4) Generating code automatically, (5) Optimizing a model, (6) Simplifying a model, (7) Choosing the set of functions to work with, (8) Choosing different architectures or model plans, (9) Experimenting with different numerical constants, (10) Exploring different fitness functions, and (11) Making predictions with the evolved models. All the video takes are real-time modeling sessions without cuts to give you a feel for how easy it is to model with GeneXproTools. The dataset used throughout the video consists of a total of 524 cases, of which 350 are used for training (that is, for building the models) and 174 for testing the predictive accuracy of the generated models.

Function Finding Video
