Oracle Data Mining 9204 2770756 TX binning utility does not clean up temp tables

9204 2904658 Attribute Importance results are incorrect for special cases
9204 2932601 Build ABN Model: Error message should be maximumbuildtime>=0 (not >0)
9204 2941824 Validate restricted data types
9204 2941831 Single value target error message
9204 2944622 Get rules by content fails when rule length is the selection criterion
9204 2956602 Need GetRules API similar to 10i
9204 2967476 Inadequate binning can cause ABN model to fail
9204 2989926 Clustering Apply probabilities are biased for numeric attributes with outliers
9204 3010046 Model Seeker sample code gets exception in mining function settings creation phase



Bug 2702947      Fixed: 9204
ABN rules should reflect three modes: multifeature, singlefeature,
and NaiveBayes, whereas rules exist only in singlefeature mode.

Bug 2770756      Fixed: 9204
This behavior was introduced by a fix to bug 2156957 related
to internal TX binning that was hanging with many attributes. The
problem was related to the size of the query as well as the number
of expressions.

Bug 2837853     Fixed: 9204
Invalid error message when there was no positive target values in
the test data. Error message should state that when there is no positive
target in the data it does not compute lift.

Bug 2904658     Fixed: 9204
Attribute Importance results are incorrect in some special cases,
such as single bin values. This has been corrected.

Bug 2932601     Fixed: 9204
Error message should say that maximum build time is equal to or
greater than 0 (instead of greater than 0).

Bug 2941824     Fixed: 9204
ODM should check whether customer is trying to use an
unsupported data type for a data mining operation.

Bug 2941831     Fixed: 9204
Data mining algorithms that require binary or multi-class targets
should generate an error message explaining that target does not have
different values.

Bug 2944622     Fixed: 9204
The new getRulesByContent fails when the rule selection criterion is
RuleSortOrder.ruleID. Instead of using the same query as well as the rules
themselves in rule cursor, a much simpler counting query is used to get the
number of rules.

Bug 2956602     Fixed: 9204
Currently only a PL/SQL API exists and a sample Java program to get rule
using a rule ID. Product management wants a Java API in the current product.

Bug 2767476     Fixed: 9204
High cardinality in a predictor can cause other predictors to have
a low prior probability of selection, while simultaneously causing itself
to be eliminated because of high description length. The result is no
model found. The user should be alerted to the cause of the problem and
be able to override the validation.

2989926 Bug 2989926     Fixed: 9204
Numeric attributes with outliers may create an extreme condition where
most of the cases (after internal binning) fall into a single bin.
Probabilities computed on such datasets are likely to be biased and lead
to incorrect assignment of clusters. 

Bug 3010046     Fixed: 9204
In Mining Function Settings Creation Phase: Received an exception
in main: Algorithm "NULL" not supported by ModelSeeker. This has been
corrected.
