Issue with Nominal to Binominal
Contributor II
Hello
I am a new user to Rapid Miner, still trying to find my way around.
In a model I'm building, I keep coming across this error and can't find my way around it for hours now.
The error is when I try converting a 'nominal to binominal'.
The error I'm getting is 'Attribute filter does not match any attributes' when I try convert 'nominal to binomial' on the attribute named 'location3'
However, I have a break point in the prior step in model and it shows that it is successfully outputting the attribute named 'location3'
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

have you checked that the type of location3 is really binominal?

I'm a little confused by what you mean. Can you explain your question in some detail?
Regards
Matt
sorry it was my fault. If you want to use Nominal to Binominal and the choosen attribute is not Nominal, the operator fails. Are you sure that your location attribute is nominal and not Text? Just have a look into the statistics tab for that.

I just checked statistics on result. Yes - the attribute I've chosen is nominal, not text.
Any other ideas?
Thanks
Matt
have you checked for the excecution order? In some wired cases, the order might be simply wrong.

Execution order seems to be correct, can you tell from the XML I posted?
I basically tried replicating the process contained here:
http://vancouverdata.blogspot.com.au/2010/11/text-analytics-with-rapidminer-part-5.html
All the functions are in similar order
just another quick idea: Is your attribute a special attribute? Try to check the box "include special attributes" in the operator.

Thanks for your help. I ticked 'special attribute' and it seemed the 'fix' my problem somewhat.
However, now I am getting another problem: now the data (attribute name: 'tourism', role:label) doesn't seem to be outputting from the nominal to binominal function.
In other words, nominal data is going in for this attribute, but no data is coming out for this attribute.
Any ideas?
Thanks again.

See XML below:
<operator activated="true" class="nominal_to_binominal" compatibility="6.4.000" expanded="true" height="94" name="Nominal to Binominal" width="90" x="45" y="210">
<parameter key="attribute_filter_type" value="single"/>
<parameter key="attribute" value="tourist"/>
<parameter key="include_special_attributes" value="true"/>
</operator>
that feels odd. Could you send me the data and the current xml via mail? It is always hard to look on such things without the data itself.
My mail address is mschmitz at rapidminer.com

for the record: We fixed the issue via mail. The problem was related to inlcude special attributes and the select attribute operator which accendently filtered out everything.
