Size and Speed With the Excel user interface, the maximum size of Induce-It case databases is about 16,000 records, having at most 256 fields. Induce-It case database retrieval is very efficient because it uses the case and field similarities as search indices. Numbers Computes field similarities using four different ratio and distance metrics. Linear Weights Computes similarities between cases based on the weighted importance of each field. Cosine Scores Computes case similarities based on a correlation measure.
Extrapolation Predicts the value of a case field using the field values of the best matching cases.
Given a case, determines alternate similar cases based on the case field structure. Install New Case Install a new case into the case database. Induce-It comes with EMail Technical Support. The answer to a problem is adapted from the answer to the most similar problem that I already solved. Case-based answers are adapted from the closest matching cases, ranked by case score, and displayed to users in a sorted list.
