Adding adaptive model predictors

Create predictors which are input fields for the adaptive models. When creating an adaptive model, select a wide range of fields that can potentially act as predictors.

The ADM service automatically determines which predictors are used by the models, based on the individual predictive performance and the correlation between predictors. For example, the predictors with a low predictive performance do not become active. When predictors are highly correlated, only the best-performing predictor is used.

The adaptive models accept two types of predictors: symbolic and numeric. The type of predictor is automatically populated when a property is included, but you can change the predictor type, if required. For example, if the contract duration, an integer value, has a value of either 12 or 24 months, you can change the predictor type from numeric, the default, to symbolic.
