Gender Analysis Node

You can add a Gender Analysis node to a data job to determine a gender value from a list of names. The node uses an intelligent, customizable gender scoring algorithm in the Quality Knowledge Base (QKB) to determine whether a particular name is feminine, masculine, or unknown. The results are placed in a new field, and have three possible values: M (male), F (female), and U (unknown).Once you have added the node, you can double-click it to open its properties dialog. The properties dialog includes the following elements:

Name - Enables you to enter a name for the node.

Notes - Enables you to open the Notes dialog. You use the dialog to enter optional details or any other relevant information for the input.

The Gender analysis fields section of the dialog includes the following elements:

Available - Displays the fields that you can make available for the next step in your data job. Items displayed in this list are dependent on your data sources and any preceding steps in your data job.

Selected - Displays the fields that will be made available to the next node in your data job.

Additional Outputs - Displays the Additional Outputs dialog. This dialog enables you to specify the fields that you can make available to the next node in your data job.

Preserve null values - When selected, specifies that null values in the data source are preserved.

You can access the following advanced properties by right-clicking the Gender Analysis node:
