How to count number of features in Optimize Selection?

hi,

I use forward selection in optimize selection operator, but I'd like to plot the performance with the number of attributes in a chart...

however, unlike in the Forward Selection operator, there is no such parameter "number of attributes" that one can log...

I therefore tried to use some function like COUNT(feature_names) or so with the generate Attributes operator, but that function does not exist... so how can I count the number of attributes in that operator???

    Hi,

     

    The operator "Performance (Attribute Count)" should do the trick and also provide a value to log.  The process below shows you how to use it.

     

    Best,
