I'm intrigued. Would this be, in any way, related to this scenario: We have observations of a, b from C = set of complex numbers, and the resulting conic section (circle, ellipse,...): how to derive the type of the latter from the properties of the former?
Then, you aren't storing rules; you would like to derive rules from the observed data?! -W On 23 February 2011 18:21, Flogger <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you, > > let me try to explain what we are planning to do and why our first thought > was using an excel sheet. > We are doing research on sheet metal forming and my tutor is doing some > simulation and using rapidminer to create rules explaining the forming. > These rules are formulas expressing the natural strain.
