General tasks

Rulex Factory provides users with several tasks to manage rules, modelling sets, test and training sets and flows computation.

These tasks fall into four main groups:

• Structures management

• Modelling sets management

• Automation of flow computation

• Management and application of rules

---

Structures Management

Rulex Factory helps users to convert structures such as datasets, models or rulesets.

This is possible through the use of the following tasks:

• Convert Dataset to Model

• Convert Dataset to Ruleset

• Convert Dataset to Structure

• Convert Model to Dataset

• Convert Ruleset to Dataset

• Convert Structure to Dataset

Tasks layout

The Convert tasks share a common layout, consisting of Options and Results tab, except the Convert Dataset to Model and the Convert Model to Dataset tasks.

Warning

The Convert Dataset to Model and the Convert Model to Dataset tasks require no parameters or options to define, making it only necessary to compute the task to transform the dataset.

The sentence “No parameters need to be set for this task: just compute the task by right-clicking it and selecting Compute > Compute selected” will appear as opening the two tasks.

Refer to the pages dedicated to each task for more information.

Modelling sets management

Rulex Factory enables users to manage their training, test, and modelling sets by using the following tasks:

• Split Data

• Apply Model

It is recommended to use a Split Data task before building a predictive model with the Classification, Regression and Clustering tasks. Then, the Apply Model task will apply the models generated by the chosen task.

Tasks layout

The Modelling sets management tasks share a common layout, consisting of an Options tab, except the Apply Model, which presents another tab: the Results tab. Refer to the pages dedicated to each task for more information.

Automation of flow computation

In Rulex Factory, users are able to manage the computation of the flow they are working on.

This can be done by using the following tasks:

• Execute Rulex Flow File

• Export Current Flow

• Runtime Variables

• Select Flows

Tasks layout

Except the Execute Rulex Flow File task, which has an additional tab, the Configuration tab, the tasks aimed at helping the automation of flow computation have a common layout consisting of an Options tab. For further details regarding each task, refer to the corresponding pages.

---

Management and application of rules

In Rulex, users can manage rules with the help of the following tasks:

• Optimize Ruleset

• Merge Rules

Tasks layout

Except for the Merge Rules task, which has two additional tabs, Monitor and Results, the rules management tasks share a common layout consisting of an Options tab. Further details of each task can be found on the corresponding pages.
