Validation Data Set

Use this field to specify the name and complete path to the input SAS data set to use as an independent validation of the statistics and as a guide for selecting a subtree from the subtree sequence.

The Model Results and Node Statistics show statistics from both the training and validation data for comparison. The validation data does not change the tree. The data set must have the same predictor variables as the Input SAS Data Set. Only observations with a nonmissingdependent variable are used.

For detailed information about the files and data sets used or created by JMP Genomics software, see Files and Data Sets.

To Specify the Validation SAS Data Set:

The method used for this specification can vary depending on whether JMP is connected to SAS on your local machine or connected to SAS on a server. You should refer to the Specifying Folders, Files, and Data Sets documentation for detailed information.
