在 Rapidminer 中限制神经网络的输出

Putting constraint on neural network's output in Rapidminer

我正在 Rapidminer 中开发一个简单的神经网络模型来预测每小时在高速公路上通过的汽车数量。很明显,在清晨(从 2:00 上午到 6:00 上午)高速公路上很少有汽车,有时我的模型预测汽车数量为负(如 -2 或 -3 ),这在统计上是可以理解的,但是当你想在某个地方报告它时并不酷。

我正在寻找一种方法来限制模型,使其只能预测正数。我该怎么做?

谢谢

您已重新调整您的神经网络参数,否则您无法访问 RapidMiner 中的算法细节。另一个想法是在神经网络模型之后使用阈值运算符,这样您就可以更改决策的边界,使其预测的负数比现在少。

它总是取决于数据和你想做什么,但一种方法是将数字转换为多项式。所以 0 变成字符串“0”,1 变成“1”等等。这会强制神经网络单独使用可用值。

这是一个使用虚拟数据的示例过程。

它生成虚拟数据并将数值转换为多项式。 Cross Validation 的预测示例集输出包含多项式,这些被转换回数字。

不用说,这可能不适合您想要的,但这是一个开始。
