MiningStructure.HoldoutSeed Property

Definition

Gets or sets the seed used to initialize partitioning of the MiningStructure into training and testing data sets.

public long HoldoutSeed { get; set; }
member this.HoldoutSeed : int64 with get, set
Public Property HoldoutSeed As Long

Property Value

An integer that contains the holdout seed. If 0, a hash of the ID of the MiningStructure is used as the seed. The default value is 0.

Remarks

Partitioning is random and data dependent. To ensure that a particular partition can be repeated, you must specify a seed.

Notes: * To enable creation of a testing data set, the CacheMode property of the mining structure must be set to the default value, KeepTrainingCases. * Analysis Services does not support creation of holdout partitions on a mining structure. You cannot use HoldoutSeed with a mining structure that is stored in an instance of Analysis Services.
