# analysisnode properties #

![Analysis node icon](https://dataplatform.cloud.ibm.com/docs/content/wsd/nodes/scripting_guide/clementine/images/analysisnodeicon.png)The Analysis node evaluates predictive models' ability to generate accurate predictions\. Analysis nodes perform various comparisons between predicted values and actual values for one or more model nuggets\. They can also compare predictive models to each other\.
