Is it at all possible to use this tool without any connection to SQL Server (mine data in Excel Worksheets only)?? Or is it required to connect to SQL Server??
From reading the documentation, one minute I get the feeling this is possible, then the next section I get a feeling it's not. Can anyone help? Thanks.
Having successfully created :
- a data mining structure with about 80 columns.
- a data mining model using Microsoft_Decision_Trees with 2 prediction columns.Â
I thought I would then explore the possibility of have more than 2 prediction columns, in this case 20.
I get an error message and I can't work out :
a) if this is because there's a limit to the maximum number of prediction columns and where that maximum is stated.
b) if something else has become corrupted
c) there's a know bug and if the error message is either meaningful or not.
Either way, I'm unable to complete the data mining wizardÂ
The error message is :Errors in the metadata manager. Either the mining structure with the ID of '[my model Structure]' does not exist in the database with the ID of 'DMAddinsDB', or the user does not have permissions to access the object.
Hi,
I am trying to model data in analysis services with the Advance Create Mining Model function in the excel addin. I am having trouble creating an association model that works like the Associate button above the Advanced button.
The format of my data is like this
OrderID Product
100 Bike
100 Helmet
100 Shoes
200 Helmet
200 basketball
200 Bat
300 Shoes
300 Socks
The associate button works perfectly since it asks me which column is the transaction id (orderid) and which column I am trying to predict (product). The advanced create mining model asks me to determine what the columns are...
OrderID=key Product=Input+Predict?
When I run the advance create mining model associate, I get a browser that gives me no rules and the support for only one item itemset (each product but no combination of products).
Does anyone know what I have to do to get it to work like the associate button?
Implementing data mining Add-in in an academic setting? We need to handle over 150 new students a semester and have their connection to Analysis Services survive for their four years at the college. We are introducing data mining to every freshman business student as a unit within their Intro to Excel class (close to a month of work to give them a sense of what is possible). Other courses later in their curriculum will expand on that introduction.Â
Once implemented, we would have as many as 900 connections to manage (four years from now). It is possible that multiple sections will be running at the same time, so 40 students may be accessing the data mining tools concurrently. Â
Is there a way to "bulk establish" the access credentials and establish those databases?
I managed to run a single DMX query from Excel using Data Mining Extension Add-in, however, I need to run DMX statements in a loop teaching my models from different data sets. Therefore I need to run multiple custom DMX statements (I thought Excel + VBA would be the easiest way to do that). How do I use Data Mining Extension Add-in from VBA level? I cannot find relevant documentation for that purpose anywhere.I use SQL Server 2012, MS Excel 2013 and I can easily run MDX and SQL queries from Excel, but somehow DMX won't work.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi, all here,
I am wondering where can I store my mining results in data mining engine? For example, I got mining results like accuracy chart, decision trees, and other formats of results based on different mining algorithms I used for my data mining, so where can I actually store the results for reporting service use later? Is it possible to do that in SQL Server 2005?
Thanks a lot for any help and guidance in advance.
I install add-in and run fine for a while, then all of sudden I could not see Table Analyze tool and data mining tab at my ribbon. I re-run server configuration and re-connect to DMAddinDB (remote server, but I am the administrator), but data mining add-in and table analyzer still not showing at my ribbon.
Then I uninstall DMAddin, re-install it, go through configuration again, but still the tabs are not showing up.
Any idea you can help me get my add in back?
Hello,
I am trying insert the "Order by" clause into DMX but nothing is working.
INSERT INTO MINING STRUCTURE [ARS] (
[OrderID],
[Product_Table](SKIP, [Product])
)
SHAPE {
OPENQUERY ([dwMDA on PSD_TEST_TEST], 'Select Top 30000 "OrderID"
From "dwMDA"."dbo"."vDetail" Order By "OrderID"')
} APPEND
( {
OPENQUERY ([dwMDA on PSD_TEST_TEST], 'Select Top 30000 "OrderID","Product"
From "dwMDA"."dbo"."vDetail" Order By "OrderID"')} RELATE [OrderID] TO [OrderID]
) AS T
This is the DMX for market basket analysis.
I am also unable to use "order by" when i pull data into excel.
here's an example of something that doesn't work:
Select Top 20000 "OrderID","ProductGroupDescription"
From "dwMDA"."dbo"."vDetail"
Order By "OrderID"
Can someone show me the exact working SQL commands they are using for the "Order By" clause when they import data from sql into an excel spreadsheet?
Even better would be if someone
1. Open excel, and go to the data mining tab
2. Click on the Cluster Button
3. Select Analysis Service Data Source
4. Input a command the includes "Order By"
5. Run the model
6. Show me the tracer.
Thanks

Dear friends,
Hi again,
I encounter some promplems on using Data mining addins for excel, having to do with data mining staff. I have two questions.
1. In analyze tab, I try to use detect categories. I try to see in the help which algorithm do this and I see Naives, but when I check the mining model throught Microsoft visual studio I noticed that the algorithm is clustering. Is that the correct one? Does help have a mistake?
2. One more problem, I have to know some more thinks for the algorithm tha Microsoft uses. Where can I found a detailed discription of the algorithms? Is there any good explanatory report for the algorithms and results?
manolis
3. My problem is to descrimina
Does anyone know where we can get more in-dept tutorials for the Data Mining Add-Ins for Excel? Currently, all we have are the videos from the microsoft web site as well as some white papers.

Hi All,
Does anyone know how is forecasting defined in the Data Mining Add-In (Excel)? If we look to the web, we would see different Forecasting Standards. What specific Forecasting algorithm and standards used in the Forecasting in the Data Mining Add-In (Excel)?

Hi my friends,
I do have a problem with results of clustering algorithm with my categorical data.
In reality I have a big table with one's and zero's and I try to cluster according to 60 attributes.
I tries to cluster to two categories many times but I get only one cluster. What do you suggest. Which values can I change to the algorithm? Is there anything particular for categorical data ?
Thank for your help in advance.
Manolis
Thank you very much for your previous answers conserning clustering algorithm.
I change a bit my data and now I can get two and three clusters as I wish.
But now I have a different question. I wish to keep my Structure and Model for further trials with different algorithm values, like cardinality. I tried the following
I selected in excel Data Mining and then the option cluster button.
Then in the cluster wizard I chose analysis service data source and I reform the query as I need adding only at the end
where "STAFF_YES" = 1. Then I choose the needed columns and target value. Finally I select browse model, enable drill through only and I finish the wizard and get some results, rather good. But i need to try again with different parameters.
I tried Business intelligent Studio to check my Analysis service. The structure were here but when I changed any parameter and I tried to reprocess I got the following messages

Hello Experts,
I have an error message I was wondering if anyone else has seen and resolved. When I open excel and click on the query wizard on the Data Mining Ribbon, I get an error message that says "Input String not in Correct Format"
After I close this dialog box the 'Welcome to Query .... ' wizard will open, but when I select the Advance button my process aborts due to the input string error.
I have only ran association models on the computer.
The Manage Models and Browse buttons work fine.
The error came up on Friday, but it wasn't there on Thursday. There were no changes done to the machine (no installation of new software).
I have tried reinstalling the add-in.
Thank you all for your help,
Davy
I have pasted the SQL syntax below that I get from the error dialog box after the query wizard closes.
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I downloaded a trial version of office 2007 and the data mining addin. I do not have an automatic connection to Analysis Services, so most functionality does not work. Is it possible to configure a connection with a trial version? If so, does anyone know what the server name is and how to configure it?

When I run the 'Analyze Key Influencers' tool against the sample data through a remote AS server I get:
The task was not able to detect any key influencers for the 'Purchased Bike' column. The values of 'Purchased Bike' seem unrelated to values of other columns.
however when I run it against a local AS server I get the expected results.
I can see no differences in settings or setup between the AS instances I am trying to use - perhaps a permissions issue?

Hi, all experts here,
I would like to know if there is any way to migrate third-party data mining packages with SQL Server 2005 data mining algorithms together then we can have a comparison among all of them to get the best results for training models.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks a lot.

Hoping someone will have a solution for this error
Errors in the metadata manager. The data type of the '~CaseDetail ~MG-Fact Voic~6' measure must be the same as its source data type. This is because the aggregate function is not set to count or distinct count.

I have just run a simple data set through a model to predict a simple true or false value (i.e. binary output)
The Lift Chart/Mining Legend in Analysis Services shows three results €“ Score, Population Correct (%), and Predict Probability (%)
Population Correct I beleive is the percentage of predictions it got right out of the total number of predictions it tried to make. Is this correct?
However, I can€™t work out how the other two are derived in particular the 'SCORE'. To give a live example the scores were as follows:
Model Score Pop Correct Pred Probability
Decision Trees 0.83 76.59% 54.28%
Neural Network 0.75 67.63% 50.05%
Ideal Model 100.00%
Can anyone help with this and give a detailed explanation?

I perform data mining on all products and a specific product category.
Do I need to create 2 data source views, one for all products and the other one for the specific product category?
Afterward, I run the Data Mining Wizard 2 times to create 2 mining structures.
I also need to add the same mining model (e.g. Bayes, Cluster) to each of these mining structures.
Is there any simple way to do it?
Thanks.
Joe.
Hi, all here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am wondering if it is possible to use SSIS to sample data set to training set and test set directly to my data mining models without saving them somewhere as occupying too much space? Really need guidance for that.
Thank you very much in advance for any help.

"The file you are trying to open 'Resource.aspx' is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"
Clicking Yes opens the file in excel but it is opened as Resource.aspx instead of the actual excel file.
Clicking No opens the file in excel as the actual excel file.
My questions are:
1. Why does the file upload correctly as an excel file type but download as an aspx?
2. Is there a way to let Reporting Services associate the .xlsx extension with Excel.
3. Is this even a Reporting Services problem? (I believe it is, because we also use SharePoint and excel files uploaded in sharepoint download correctly using IE7).
Any help or insight is appreciated.

Hi, all experts here,

I am looking forward to hearing from you and thanks a lot in advance for your advices and help.
