The INPUT statement names input variables that share common options. You can specify the INPUT statement multiple times.
You can specify the following options:
LEVEL=INTERVAL | NOMINAL
specifies the level of measurement of the variables. You can specify the following values:
INTERVAL
specifies that the level of measurement of the variables is interval.
NOMINAL
specifies that the level of measurement of the variables is nominal.
By default, LEVEL=INTERVAL for numeric variables and LEVEL=NOMINAL for categorical variables.
MONOTONIC=DECREASING | INCREASING
requests that the gradient boosting model be built by requiring monotonic constraints on the model with respect to the variables. You can specify the following values:
DECREASING
requests that decreasing monotonic constraints be placed on the model with respect to the variables.
INCREASING
requests that increasing monotonic constraints be placed on the model with respect to the variables.
