    This document provides instructions for performing data preprocessing on a weather dataset using the WEKA Explorer. It describes using the Discretize filter to convert numeric attributes like temperature to nominal values using equal-width binning with 3 bins. It also describes using the PKIDiscretize filter to discretize the humidity attribute using equal-depth binning based on the square root of the number of values. The goal is to discretize numeric attributes in the weather dataset as an example of data preprocessing in WEKA.

    Data Preprocessing with WEKA Explorer


    Binning With Filter
    Unsupervised Attribute Filter – Discretize: This filter converts numeric attributes to
    nominal use equal-width (default) or equal-depth (frequency) binning.

    1. Open the dataset weather.numeric. First, replace missing values with the filter.

    2. Choose filter Discretize from the drop-down list of unsupervised attribute


    filters and then left-click to open its properties window. We want to perform
    equal-width binning on 2nd attribute – temperature with three bins.
    3. Click Apply button. Then select temperature attribute to check the results.
    4. To perform equal-depth (frequency) binning on the 3rd attribute humidity, we
    choose filter PKIDiscretize from the drop-down list of unsupervised attribute
    filters and then left-click to open its properties window. This filter use the square
    root of the number of values as the number of bins.
