hi,I am a novice SSAS Programmer.I need a prediction Query in time series algorithm, so that it should predict for a particular date.I dont know how to use where condition in a prediction Query.
Thanks

First of all I would like to politely greet everybody as I'm new on that forum and new to Data Mining in fact.
To introduce myself I can say I'm a student of Computer Science and I'm trying to use Time Series algorithm for weather analysis. I know that forecasting weather is a hopeless task even for the fastest computers in the world but what I'm trying to do is a kind of aposteriori analysis of historical data to notice some dependencies or characteristic weather behavior on a specified region and perhaps make some short time predictions.
I tried Time Series Algorithm although I have some doubts about methodological justification of this choice (if You have any critical comments please share them with me). But my main questions are about the usage of the algorithm itself:
I've read the documentation and a tutorial on this page for historical predictions but I still don't know what exactly are HistoricalModelCount and HistoricalModelGap. I know that my historical predictions are bounded by a €“ HistoricalModelCount*HistoricalModelGap*, but it's a rather operational knowledge... The explanation is always clouded with an €œinternal model€? phrase. Can You point me to a document where I can find some more detailed information? (What is the form of the model? How is it built? etc.)
Periodicity Hint. How should I treat these optional values? Are they other possible periods of data? I have data about weather measurements made every six hours for thirteen years** so is it a good choice to set this parameter to {365*4,4} (The first goes for a year and the second for a day)?
This is a technical question and I'm really ashamed of myself that I bother You with it. On the time chart in a model Viewer I can see date from the last year only. Zooming out/in, clicking insanely on every pixel on the screen, did not give any result (apart of broken mouse buttons). Is is possible to browse that data in mining model viewer chart?
Thank You in advance for Your replies!
*This formula suggests how this parameters could work but I would like to know it for sure €“ don't want to make some awful mistakes in my project. :-)
**Of course I plan to reduce the amount of data but the period will stay.
The first question is how to of TimeSeries Algorithm?
Using SQL Server 2005 TimeSeries Algorithm ,I build a data mining model.But after three days,it is still training.The data has 2,200,00 rows.
So what can i do to improve the processing speed.
Thanks!
The second question is parameters in Data Mining Query Task.
Data Mining Query Task is used to get data from data mining model.In the mining model form, i choose a mining model . And in the query form,i wrote a dmx ,"select flattened top 100 predicttimeseries([Xssl],1)
from [Time Series XSSL]".Last i choose a table that is for the data from mining model.
If the "100" is variable , how can i do ?
Thanks a lot!
I've saw many tutorials about using TimeSeries. But all of them using a table. But I'm using a cube to represent data. So I'm trying to build forecast from cube, but it doesn't so good as in could be.
I've got the same problem as desribed in Microsoft's tutoral Adventure work. So I need to forecast a series of sales.
The problem is that I can't create second key value, as it shown in tutorial. So I can't split good's sales. I have created dimentions for goods and for time. So cube's browser shows me very handsome view, but the problem with mining model still remains...
Please, help me! How can I solve this problem?
Can I create a separate table from cube to build forecast by this table?
Or I can solve this problem not using tables?
I've got a report that is using a cube as a data source and I can't get the report to show all the data. Only data at the lowest level of the cube is displayed. The problem is that most of the data I'm concerned with is at higher levels. There's no problem with the MDX. I get the correct results when I run the query.
I'm using a table to show the results. I've also tried a matrix, but I get the same results. I'm using SSRS 2005 and SSAS 2000.
Anyone have experience with this? Am I missing something simple?
Hi Guys,
We had existing cubes in our Analysis Server, we were required to move them on another Reporting Server which would be using Data Replicated every night to that server. Problem is now source data is divided into 2 Reporting Database Servers. Table Names/View Names are the same in all the Databases. I just want to change the data source pointing to existing Database to the new Reporting Server. Can you tell me how this can be achieved?

Kaushal
Hi all,
I am new to SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services and would like to use the OLAP Cubes as a datasource to build Mining Model . However i would like to use a particular view of the OLAP cube that i have generated to be used as the datasource for the mining model . I find that i am not able to save the Cube View while browsing the OLAP cube in Business Intelligence Studio. Is there a way i can acheive this requirement.
Any ideas regarding this will be really appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Satya
how to trigger report's refresh following its underlying SSAS cubes process?
I want to keep reports data updated at all times, especially when this happens while user is already browsing the report..
I don't want to set an auto refresh for the report every 5 minutes as my cube is processed only one time during the day...

Hello friends,
Can u give some idea about the Algorithm in Data Mining for Clustering..
Please reply...
Hi !!
I read that it is possible to create a custom algorithm and use it as a plug in to sql server 2005. What programming language are available for this purpose ? C++ only ? Can I use .net ?
Thank you!
Hi,
actually i want to implement a c# component that can help third party data mining algorithm
and i want managed plug-in algorithm (without wrapper),.
is it possible to write whole application in c#
as Analysis servisce is in c++ , can we implement it in c#
thanks in advance

Hi
In this code how can I create a new data source and new data source view and model and structure that it run dynamic.
In this code I have a lot of errors, that they are about server and database don€™t have in current code,
In this code, first I should definition server or no?
Database dbNew = new Database (databaseName,
Utils.GetSyntacticallyValidID(databaseName, typeof(Database)));
srv.Databases.Add(dbNew);
dbNew.Update(true);
***********************************************************
How can I create data source and data source view and model and structure?
Please say code of that, and guide me.
databasename and srv is unknown.
Do I add other reference with analysis services?
Please explain about these codes:
************************************************************************
1)
RelationalDataSource dsNew = new RelationalDataSource(
datasourceName,
Utils.GetSyntacticallyValidID(

dsNew.Update();
2)
RelationalDataSourceView rdsv;
rdsv = db.DataSourceViews.Add(
datasourceviewName,

Add columns:
ScalarMiningStructureColumn smsc;
// From table "Customer" we will add a couple of columns
// CustomerID - key
smsc = new ScalarMiningStructureColumn("Customer ID",
Utils.GetSyntacticallyValidID("Customer ID", typeof(ScalarMiningStructureColumn)));
smsc.IsKey = true;

Please exactly say, whatever I want
Thanks a lot for your answer
Please don€™t move this question because I don€™t know where I should write this.
I have set up a new connection as a connection from data source, but I cannot see how to use this connection to create my Data Flow Source. I have tried using an OLE DB connection, but this is painfully slow! The process of loading 10,000 rows takes 14 - 15 minutes. The same process in Access using SQL on a linked table via DSN takes 45 seconds.
Have I missed something in my set up of the OLE DB source / connection? Will a DSN source be faster?
Thanks in advance

Hi, all,
Again I encountered a very strange problem which displayed the predicted attribute values as percentage format? The data type of the attribute is actually double, why is that?
That's really frustrated.
Thanks a lot in advance for your kind advices and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
Hi,
I have prepared a time series model. The model works well with few cases. Answering time raises extremly after processing the model with all cases.
In a book I read sth. about a cahing possibilty. But how can this be defined in Visual Studio ?
Thanks in advance

managed plug-in framework that's available for download here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=DF0BA5AA-B4BD-4705-AA0A-B477BA72A9CB&displaylang=en#DMAPI.
This package includes the source code for a sample plug-in algorithm written in C#.
in this source code all .cs files are modified for clustering algorithm
if my plugin algorithm is of association or classification type then what modifications are requried in source code???
Hi,
I mined a small-size table using TimeSeries. There are only 3 columns in the mining model : payment, region_name, and period. Payment is of type floating-point designated as predicted column, region_name is of type string/text designated as key, period is of type numeric(6) with year and month designated as key time. Build and deployment are successful. The value of period spans from 200501 to 200603, with PERIODICITY_HINT is set to {12}.
(1) However, the viewer displays the result in percentage, not the values of column payment.
How can I instruct the viewer (or Visual Studio) NOT to display it on percentage?
(2) Two key-values are missing. In the data, there are 8 key-values. But the viewer displays only 6 of them. How can this be?
Thank you,
Bernaridho
There are two questions.
One is whe TimeSeries can predict text content。
The other is whether Sequence Cluster can predict multi columns.
Revenue 4 GB (4086 MB)
Partitioned into 12 partitions (about 340 MB each)
The count of records : almost 16.8 millions
Each partition has approximately 1.4 million records
Algorithm chosen : TimeSeries
Time Key : Period (6 digits integer with values range from 200501 to 200512,
integer values)
(Non-time) Key : Telephone number, variable-length string/text, max 15 char
Input-and-predicted column1 : SLI007
Input-and-predicted column2 : SLI008
I have set the value for PERIODICITY_HINT to {12}. I created the project 3
times in 3 machines. All fail. The error message is the same :
Internal error : An unexpected exception occured.
Internal error: An unexpected error occurred (file 'dmtimeseries.cpp', line 646, function 'DMTimeSeries::ProcessCaseTS3and4').
I searched for the file in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server and its
subfolders. I didn't find it.
What causes the error?
I tested 3 machines to check whether the performance of the machine is the culprit.
Single processor Pentium M 2.0 GHz with 2 GB Memory
Double processor Xeon 2.4 GHz with 3 GB Memory
Double processor Xeon 3.4 GHz with 4 GB Memory
But the project in all those machines return the same error.
Any idea?
Thank you
Bernaridho
Using the TimeSeries algorithm, how do I forecast more than one time period ahead? I read in you book on page 182 that PredictTimeSeries function can take a parameter for the number of time periods you want to predict. Fore example, SELECT PredictTimeSeries(Bread,5) tells the algorithm to predict the next 5 time periods. Can you tell me how to change that parameter using the graphic interfaces?
Thanks!
hi everybody,
i want to create data source and data source view for data mining, with using C Sharp.
i have create data source and data source view and export to XML file, but when i change to another computer, run those XML file, it return error, when i run statement to create and biuld mining model, what can i change on xml or how to run XML on another computer sucessfully,
and have i build data source and data source view, how to do it.?
thanks for you helps
Today I was making a few reports.
When I tested the reports in Visual Studio, they worked great: I got the expected result.
But when I deployed the reports to our reportserver the problem started.
When I click on the directory in which my reports are deployed, I got my 4 reports.
Till now everything worked correct.
But when I click on a report to view the results it went wrong.
I got an error:
"Cannot create a connection to data source 'Live'"
(Live is the name of our data source).
We are using the Windows Logons and I am sure that I have all the rights on the server, I gave myself 'sysadmin' rights, so it should work.
I also have tried it with all the roles assigned on my account, but then it still won't work.
When I modify the data source, and set it to another server en database it works.
The datasource 'Live' exists on a x64 MsSQL server, en the other datasource is on a x86 MsSQL server.
Maybe that is the problem?
Can someone tell me what is wrong?
Hi there,
I'm trying to build a report for Windows Forms (C#) using .rdlc files.
But every time I run it, I get this error message. I've followed the step-by-step from MSDN instructions... but it doesn't work!
Could anyone help me?!
Tks a lot!

I was trying to load data using SSIS, Data Flow Task, OLE DB Source, source was a view to a OLE DB Destination (SQL Server). This view returns 420,591 rows from Query Analyzer in 21 seconds. Row length is 925. When I try to executed the Data Flow Task from SSIS, I had to stop the process after 30 minutes, because only 2,000 rows had been retrieved. I modified the view to retun top 440, 000 and reran. This time all 420, 591 rows were retrieved and written in 22 seconds. Next, I tried to use a TOP 100 Percent. Again, only 2,000 rows were return after 30 minutes. TempDB is on a separate SAN Raid group with 200 gig free, Databases on a separate drive with 200 gig free. Server has 13 gig of memory and no other processes were executing.
The only way I could populate the table was by using an Execute SQL Task and hard code an Insert into table selecting data from the view (35 seconds) from SSIS.
Have anyone else experience this or a similar issue? Anyone have a solutionexplanation?
I am just starting out using CUBEMEMBER/CUBEVALUE formulas in excel linked into a sql olap db - using this method for some custom reports where pivot tables are not suitable.
The time dimension values include Months, Quarters and Years and the CUBEMEMBER formulas like
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1].&[1]") work fine - 1st quarter 1st month etc.
Is there a straightforward notation to aggregate months or do I need to use a plus sign to add a number of CUBEMEMBER formulas together.In other words - Is there an easier way of for say jan to july 2015 totals than
=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1]") + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[2]")) + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[3].&[7]"))
I haven't tested this but have assumed it works but a bit long and clumsy.
I have problems creating a cube with AMO.
I can add the cube to the database object and fill it with dimensions and a measuregroup (see code below).
If I call cube.Update() it says something like "Error in meta data manager. Cube has no measuregroups." (getting the message in german language)
The error in Microsoft.AnalysisServices.OperationException.Results.Messages is -1055653629
I can't find any documentation about this (or any other) error code in Microsoft documentation.
Here's my Code:
Cube newCube = database.Cubes.Add("MyCube","MyCube");
newCube.Language = 1031;
newCube.Collation = "Latin1_General_CI_AS";
CubeDimension dim = newCube.Dimensions.Add("dim1","dim1","dim1");
CubeAttribute attrib = dim.Attributes.Find("dim1Attr1");
[code]....
Hi,
I have made sure that I am a member of OLSP Adminstrator group on the server and everything seems to work al the way till design storgae and cube processing but then when I browse the cube, I do not get any data :confused:
Can someone kindly help and guide please.
Many thanks.
Can someone help me out in telling me what a data cube is and if you have any examples I can look at?
We are in the process of using data cubes through SQL. What we are looking for is to be able to have summary of data, but if we wanted to click on a grouping we can go to the details of the data.
I just wanted to know if there was any infomation/websites I can go and look at.
Thanks,
Wendy
Hi
i am using pivot table 11 to display the data from SSAS Cube. the problem is
1- pivot table fetches all the data and display it according to the design. but what i need is
a- the user could only see the data which was posted by himself.
b. He must be unaware of the data posted by other users.
in database table there is a field named userId which is also which is part of dimenssion in myCube.
i dont want to use filteraxes for this purpose actually i want the user to be unaware of other users of system also
any single helping word will be appriciated

When I make a call to GetSchemaDataset with a restriction of a cube name with a space in the name of the cube the call fails. Following is a sample of the code: adoRestriction = new AdomdRestriction("CATALOG_NAME", "Contoso Telecom_Contoso"); adoRestrictions.Add(adoRestriction); dataSet = conn.GetSchemaDataSet("MDSCHEMA_CUBES", adoRestrictions); I am running SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services SP2. Is there some way to qualify the cube name in the restriction or is this just a bug? Thanks.
