SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 44915: Models built using Bagging or Boosting in group processing produce incorrect probabilities
 |  |  |  |
To build bagged models in SAS® Enterprise Miner™, you must set the Mode property to Bagging in the Start Groups node. You can then modify the Index Count (default=10), which controls the number of models that are used in bagging. However, if you run the flow with an Index Count value that is greater than 2, then SAS Enterprise Miner incorrectly combines the predicted probabilities.
You can also build boosted models by setting the Mode property to Boosting. However, the predicted probabilities might be incorrect.
There are no error or warning messages to indicate a problem.
There is no workaround.
