Ada boost issue

Hi Guys-

Looks like the ada boost operator has an error. I can run the process without issue by using the Weka Ada boost and Weka decision stump.

Below is the code and then the error message.

    Hi there,

    The error message more probably indicates that something is awry with your data, rather than the operator; if you replace your datasources with a generator the problem disappears, like this..

    Perhaps you could put in a break to check your data - as far as I can make out your numerical to binominal operators just fill numerical columns with "true", which may not be what you want, like this.. 
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
    <process version="5.0">

          <location/>
          <location/>
        </output>
        <macros/>
      </context>
      <operator activated="true" class="process" expanded="true" name="Process">
        <process expanded="true" height="478" width="915">
          <operator activated="true" breakpoints="after" class="generate_data" expanded="true" height="60" name="Generate Data" width="90" x="50" y="34"/>
          <operator activated="true" class="numerical_to_binominal" expanded="true" height="76" name="Numerical to Binominal" width="90" x="217" y="33"/>
          <connect from_op="Generate Data" from_port="output" to_op="Numerical to Binominal" to_port="example set input"/>
          <connect from_op="Numerical to Binominal" from_port="example set output" to_port="result 1"/>
          <portSpacing port="source_input 1" spacing="0"/>
          <portSpacing port="sink_result 1" spacing="0"/>
          <portSpacing port="sink_result 2" spacing="0"/>
        </process>
      </operator>
    </process>
    Anyways, good luck!

    Hmmm thanks Haddock, I'll look at this. I thought since the process worked with other model operators as well as the Weka Ada boost the data was not at fault.

    Regarding the numeric to binomial operator I had a target column coded 0,1 but it came through csv operator as numeric so I was <I thought> changing it to a type of nominal...
