Design and Run your First Experiment in Weka

Last Updated on August 22, 2019

Weka is the perfect platform for learning machine learning. It provides a graphical user interface for exploring and experimenting with machine learning algorithms on datasets, without you having to worry about the mathematics or the programming.

A powerful feature of Weka is the Weka Experimenter interface. Unlike the Weka Explorer that is for filtering data and trying out different algorithms, the Experimenter is for designing and running experiments. The experimental results it produces are robust and are good enough to be published (if you know what you are doing).

In a previous post you learned how to run your first classifier in the Weka Explorer.

In this post you will discover the power of the Weka Experimenter. If you follow along the step-by-step instructions, you will design an run your first machine learning experiment in under five minutes.

Kick-start your project with my new book Machine Learning Mastery With Weka, including step-by-step tutorials and clear screenshots for all examples.
