Hi,

is it possible to compare ROCs of models with different subsets of attributes? I'm trying to compare the ROCs fo 2 Naive Bayes models, one has the full set of attributes and the other only has a subset. I tried including "Remove Correlated Attributes" / "Select Attributes" in the "Compare ROCs" process but I keep getting errors. "Select Attributes" displays the following error:

Exception: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
Message: 1
Stack trace:

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? :( Your help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Mela,

    without knowing the exact process setup I can only make a guess: is it possible that you are trying to apply a model which has been trained on the full set of attributes to the example set with less attributes? That is not supposed to work - please train the model on the same example set with the same attributes as the one you apply it to. I admit the the error message could be a bit more expressive, though.

    If this does not help you, please post your process here.

    Cheers,
    Marius
