Hello,

I am looking at the Output in Results after running a Model Comaprison node for four models. I understand how lift/gain/%response is calculated across deciles but was wondering how these values are calculated for the 'whole' model (see below - apologies about formatting). 

Thanks,

Martin

Good question - it's not very clear in the output.  It's actually not for the whole model, but reporting the lift/gain-like statistics at depth 10 in the Statistics Comparison table.

Thanks Wendy. Have been reviewing Lift/Gain etc. for a certification exam. Your response was very helpful.
