SAS EMiner - Incremental response model diagnostic

[SGhosh]

In Incremental response model diagnostic chart or table, which one is predicting the variables to be used?

Train, Validate or Test? What would be the impact if the train is looking like a good model but Validate is not?

Thanks so much

Like other predictive modeling, the train and validation set are used for training in the IR node and the test set as hold-out data is  only used for verifying the model accuracy at the end. If you see that the train is good but not validation, please try more options for training. For example, you can specify the Selection Method and set Validation Error or Cross Validation Error as the Selection Criterion; also the Two-Way interaction option can help capture nonlinear relationships if there is any in the data.
