parameter list<br />
Optional. A comma-separated list of provider-defined parameters for the algorithm.<br />
filter criteria<br />
A filter expression that is applied to the columns in the case table.<br />
Remarks<br />
If the mining structure contains composite keys, the mining model must include all the<br />
key columns that are defined in the structure.<br />
If the model does not require a predictable column, for example, models that are built by<br />
using the Microsoft Clustering and Microsoft Sequence Clustering algorithms, you do<br />
not have to include a column definition in the statement. All the attributes in the<br />
resulting model will be treated as inputs.<br />
In the WITH clause that applies to the case table, you can specify options for both<br />
filtering and drillthrough:<br />
• Add the FILTER keyword and a filter condition. The filter applies to the cases in the<br />
mining model.<br />
• Add the DRILLTHROUGH keyword to enable users of the mining model to drill<br />
down from model results to the case data. In <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Mining</strong> <strong>Extensions</strong> (<strong>DMX</strong>),<br />
drillthrough can be enabled only when you create the model.<br />
To use both case filtering and drillthrough, you combine the keywords in a single WITH<br />
clause by using the syntax shown in the following example:<br />
WITH DRILLTHROUGH, FILTER(Gender = 'Male')<br />
Column Definition List<br />
You define the structure of a model by specifying a column definition list that includes<br />
the following information for each column:<br />
• Name (mandatory)<br />
• Alias (optional)<br />
• Modeling flags<br />
• Prediction request, which indicates to the algorithm whether the column contains a<br />
predictable value, indicated by the PREDICT or PREDICT_ONLY clause<br />
Use the following syntax for the column definition list to define a single column:<br />
[AS ] []<br />
[]<br />
Column Name and Alias<br />
The column name that you use in the column definition list must be the name of the<br />
column as it is used in the mining structure. However, you can optionally define an alias<br />
to represent the structure column in the mining model. You can also create multiple<br />
column definitions for the same structure column, and assign a different alias and<br />
prediction usage to each copy of the column. By default, the structure column name is<br />
