Existing Model Utilization
This function treats or transforms the input data according to the parameters of an existing model (typically a normalization, a regression, a classification, a clustering model or an applicability domain model). The applied mathematical transformation is applied to all columns in the input data that are contained in the existing model. This model is either generated within the project or imported from the user’s Isalos models library.
Table of contents
Use the Existing Model Utilization
function by browsing in the top ribbon:
Analytics \(\rightarrow\) Existing Model Utilization |
Input
Data matrix with arbitrary data.
Configuration
Model | Select the model to be applied to the input data from the dropdown list. If the model is developed within the same project, the name of the corresponding tab will be displayed as: (from Tab:) Name of the tab . |
Type | (Automatically detected) The type of model. |
Description | (Automatically detected) The model description provided by the user when saving a model using the Import Model from function. |
Model Input | (Automatically detected) The list of columns to which the model will be applied. |
Output
Data matrix with processed data according to the applied model parameters.
Example
Input
In the left-hand spreadsheet of the tab insert the data matrix to be transformed. In this case, the test set data is going to be normalized according to a normalization model developed under the same project.

Configuration
- Select
Analytics
\(\rightarrow\)Existing Model Utilization
. - Select from the dropdown list [1] the
Model
of interest.

- The model details will be presented automatically in
Type
[2],Description
[3] andModel Input
[4] fields. - Click on the
Execute
button [5] to apply the selected model on the input data.

Output
In the right-hand spreadsheet of the tab the output data matrix with the normalized columns is presented.

Tips
The Existing Model Utilization
function is useful in cases when test/external data shall be transformed the same as way as training data has been processed, or when predictions shall be generated for a dataset using an already developed machine learning model.
