1 Program


1.1 Shell

Opens an xterm terminal.

1.2 Exit

Exits Proper

2 Experiment

Either predefined experiments or self-defined ones can be executed here

2.1 Setup

creates the databases and imports the data for the predefined experiments

2.2 MILK

performs a flattening of the whole database of each experiment into a single table, exporting the content to an ARFF file and evaluating that. For some experiments classifying of unknown instances may take place and also some testing.

2.3 RELAGGS

instead of flattening a database RELAGGS uses aggregation for propositionalization and performs the same steps after exporting like MILK.

2.4 REMILK

REMILK is the combination of MILK and RELAGGS, i.e. it uses the multi-instance data from MILK and adds the aggregation from RELAGGS to it.

2.5 Builder

The Builder enables the user to build his own experiments from scratch. I.e. setting up databases, importing data and performing propositionalization etc. and saving them to an ANT file.

2.6 Run

Here you can run any ANT file that was built for Proper.

3 Remote

Tools for distributed computing are found here

3.1 JobMonitor

The JobMonitor enables one to check on any JobServer that is currently running (started with ./scripts/server.sh). It provides insight into what clients are registered with this server, how many jobs are done or have failed.

3.2 Jobber

With this tool you can create a job file that a JobServer (started with ./scripts/server.sh) uses as input. The basis are previously generated ANT files, either the predefined ones or user-defined.
