combine example sets

simon_knoll

Hello all
is there a possibility to "merge/combine" examples by there id?

for instance having this examplset:

id	att1	att2	att3
1	somevalue	somevalue	somevalue
1	somevalue	somevalue	somevalue
2	somevalue	somevalue	somevalue
2	somevalue	somevalue	somevalue

transformed into this

id	att1	att2	att3
1	newvalue	newevalue	newvalue
2	newevalue	newvalue	newvalue

best regards
simon knoll

Hello Simon,

I am afraid that Example ID should be unique in the whole ExampleSet. Otherwise it wont be an ID.
However it is quite simple to combine two example sets. Please refer to the RM tutorial (available via RM help menu).

Hmm, i think you got me wrong, i'll try to give a better explaination:

I have a Process Document Operator wich processes several documents.
within the process operator i have a cut operator wich extracts different features.
and nou i have different examples wich all are extracted from the same document.
as i want to do kind of document clustering i need to tell the cluster algorithm (k-means)
that these examples extracted from the same document belong together. therefore i
thought the only way is to combine examples.

could someone help me please
im really desperate at the moment :-/
