v4 v5 19 19 == Identification of Non-Linear Models == 20 20 As a preparation for symbolic regression a number of parameters have to be configured. A very important parameter is the grammar that restricts the possible shapes of evolved models and defines the basic building blocks for symbolic regression models (function set). 21 [[Image(grammar.png )]]21 [[Image(grammar.png, with=300)]] 22 22 23 23 Other important parameters are the error function that should be minimized (e.g. mean of squared errors, mean of absolute errors, Pearson's R², ...), and the maximal size of the models. Additionally the parameters of the underlying evolutionary algorithm like population size, mutation rate, and number of iterations can be configured. … … 27 27 28 28 In HeuristicLab a number of different charts and error metrics are available directly in the GUI for each produced solutions. All results are updated dynamically while the algorithm is running. 29 [[Image(screenshots.png )]]29 [[Image(screenshots.png, with=300)]] 30 30 31 31 == Identification of Relevant Variables == 32 32 Frequently it is not necessary to learn a full model of the functional relationship but instead only find a set of relevant variables for the process. This can be achieved easily with HeuristicLab through analysis of relative variable frequencies in the population of models. The following Figure shows a variable frequency chart that clearly shows the six most relevant variables. Notably, the relevance of variables is determined based on non-linear models. So, non-linear influence factors and pair-wise interacting factors can be identified as well. 33 33 34 [[Image(relevantvariables_small.png )]]34 [[Image(relevantvariables_small.png, with=300)]] 35 35 36 36 == Simplification of Models with Visual Hints ==
