One of those cool conferences that is on my bucket list- this time in Hungary (That’s a nice place)
But I am especially interested in seeing how far Radoop has come along !
Disclaimer- Rapid Miner has been a Decisionstats.com sponsor for many years. It is also a very cool software but I like the R Extension facility even more!
—————————————————————
and not very expensive too compared to other User Conferences in Europe!-

- Advanced Data Handling
- Sampling
- Balancing data
- Joins and Aggregations
- Detection and removal of outliers
- Dimensionality reduction
- Control process execution
- Remember process results
- Recall process results
- Loops
- Using branches and conditions

- Transforming log tables to data
Development Workshop Part 1 and Part 2
Want to exchange ideas with the developers of RapidMiner? Or learn more tricks for developing own operators and extensions? During our development workshops on Tuesday and Friday, we will build small groups of developers each working on a small development project around RapidMiner. Beginners will get a comprehensive overview of the architecture of RapidMiner before making the first steps and learn how to write own operators. Advanced developers will form groups with our experienced developers, identify shortcomings of RapidMiner and develop a new extension which might be presented during the conference already. Unfinished work can be continued in the second workshop on Friday before results might be published on the Marketplace or can be taken home as a starting point for new custom operators.
