pmml.hclust: Generate PMML for a hclust object

Description

Generate the Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML) representation for a hierarchical cluster object. The hclust object will be approximated by k centroids and is converted into a PMML representation for kmeans clusters.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'hclust':
pmml(model, model.name="HClust_Model", app.name="Rattle/PMML",
     description="Hierarchical cluster model", copyright=NULL,
transforms=NULL, dataset=NULL, centers, \dots)

Arguments

model
a hclust object.
model.name
a name to give to the model in the PMML.
app.name
the name of the application that generated the PMML.
description
a descriptive text for the header of the PMML.
copyright
the copyright notice for the model.
transforms
a coded list of transforms performed.
dataset
the orginal training dataset, if available.
centers
a list of means to represent the clusters.
...
further arguments passed to or from other methods.

Details

PMML is an XML based language which provides a way for applications to define statistical and data mining models and to share models between PMML compliant applications. More information about PMML and the Data Mining Group can be found at http://www.dmg.org.

The generated PMML can be imported into any PMML consuming application, such as the Zementis ADAPA and UPPI scoring engines which allow for predictive models built in R to be deployed and executed on site, in the cloud (Amazon, IBM, and FICO), in-database (IBM Netezza, Pivotal, Sybase IQ, Teradata and Teradata Aster) or Hadoop (Datameer and Hive).
