Weight by Rule Operator - What's the principle behind it?

green_tea

Hello community,

I looked into the documentation and briefly on google scholar to understand how the weight by rules operator works.

I am mainly interested for which types of data the results are meaningful, e.g. does it work with numerical and/or nominal features and is there something I have to watch out for. It would be also interesting how the rule(s) for each feature are created. If somehow can link me a paper regarding this or guide me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!
