The OUTPUT statement creates a data set that contains the predicted values of the training data set. If you specify METHOD=ACTIVESET in the PROC HPSVM statement, you can request that additional scoring data sets be output.
-
OUT=SAS-data-set <COPYVARS=(variables)>
produces the "Out" data set, which contains the predicted target. The variables in the input data set are not included in this output data set. However, the variables that you specify in the ID statement or in the COPYVARS= suboption are included.
If you specify METHOD=ACTIVESET in the PROC HPSVM statement, you can also specify following output-options:
-
OUTCLASS=SAS-data-set
produces the "Outclass" data set, which contains the input variables and the corresponding class levels.
-
OUTEST=SAS-data-set
produces the "Outest" data set, which contains the training parameters, scale information, alphas, and support vectors.
-
OUTFIT=SAS-data-set
produces the "Outfit" data set, which contains the outfit statistics, including the scale, method, kernel, number of support vectors, and so on.
The OUTPUT statement is optional.
