## weka.classifiers.functions
Class IsotonicRegression

    java.lang.Object
      weka.classifiers.Classifier
          weka.classifiers.functions.IsotonicRegression

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, CapabilitiesHandler, OptionHandler, RevisionHandler, WeightedInstancesHandler

    public class IsotonicRegression

extends Classifier
implements WeightedInstancesHandler

Learns an isotonic regression model. Picks the attribute that results in the lowest squared error. Missing values are not allowed. Can only deal with numeric attributes.Considers the monotonically increasing case as well as the monotonicallydecreasing case

Valid options are:

     -D
      If set, classifier is run in debug mode and
      may output additional info to the console
