Doing a qualitative comparison between two models

Hello,

 

I am trying to do a qualitative comparison between two different models (same type of model, namely naïve bayes) but different input attributs. Now I want to check the difference in predictions between the models and then plot the distribution of those disagreements between the models. Is there an easy way to do this in RapidMiner?

 

So far I have tried different techniques like join, append, but those are all not what I want. 

 

I have included the XML code of my process.

    You should be able to save the predictions from the two different models, then rename predictions from one set so they don't have the same names as the other, and then join them together using your id variable.  Once you have them both together, you can use Generate Attributes to create a flag where predictions are different, and then filter the dataset on that and do some exploratory data analysis.

    Thank you! I would like to add something to your answer, the join will filter out the predictions of one model, even after renaming, so you should also change the label (with Set Role) to no longer be a label (prediction) attribute.

    Correct, I should have mentioned the need to change the role of the 2nd prediction as well as the name.  Good catch!
