This transform uses buckets to convert continuous data into discrete data. It is common to use GFilter to combine this with your favorite modeler (which only supports discrete values) to create a modeler that can also support continuous values as well. More...

	Returns a buffer of sufficient size to store an inner (transformed) vector. The caller should not to delete the buffer. The same buffer will be returned each time. More...

void	train (const GRelation &pRelation)
	"Trains" the transform without any data. More...

virtual GMatrix *	transformBatch (const GMatrix &in)
	This assumes that train has already been called, and transforms all the rows in in returning the resulting matrix. The caller is responsible for deleting the new matrix. More...

	This assumes train was previously called, and untransforms all the rows in pIn and returns the results. More...

Detailed Description

This transform uses buckets to convert continuous data into discrete data. It is common to use GFilter to combine this with your favorite modeler (which only supports discrete values) to create a modeler that can also support continuous values as well.
