Discovery Specifications

Discovery Specifications determine the parameter values used in the Rule Discovery task. They are managed in the Rule Discovery workspace.

Once an item is selected from the Navigation Pane, it can be viewed or modified using the following tabs:

• General - standard metadata relating to the selected item.

• Specification - details of the parameters and algorithms to be used.

Creating Discovery Specifications

New Discovery Specifications can be created from the Navigation Pane.

Create a Discovery Specification

1. Navigate to the Rule Discovery page.

2. Within the Navigation Pane, select the folder in which you want to create a new discovery specification.

3. Select New > Discovery Spec.

   A new discovery specification will be created with a default name "New Discovery 1".

4. Within the General tab, use the Name field to enter a new name for the discovery specification.

   Once you have typed a name, click outside of the text field to ensure it will be saved.

5. Within the Specification tab, select an Algorithm and enter the required parameters.

   Note: Spatial Boosting is the only algorithm currently supported (see Spatial Boosting Algorithm).
