## weka.filters.unsupervised.instance
Class RemoveFolds

    java.lang.Object
      weka.filters.Filter
          weka.filters.unsupervised.instance.RemoveFolds

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, CapabilitiesHandler, OptionHandler, RevisionHandler, UnsupervisedFilter

    public class RemoveFolds

extends Filter
implements UnsupervisedFilter, OptionHandler

This filter takes a dataset and outputs a specified fold for cross validation. If you want the folds to be stratified use the supervised version.

Valid options are:

     -V
      Specifies if inverse of selection is to be output.

     -N <number of folds>
      Specifies number of folds dataset is split into.
      (default 10)

     -F <fold>
      Specifies which fold is selected. (default 1)

     -S <seed>
      Specifies random number seed. (default 0, no randomizing)

  Returns the tip text for this property

  Returns:
    tip text for this property suitable for displaying in the explorer/experimenter gui

### getInvertSelection

    public boolean getInvertSelection()

  Gets if selection is to be inverted.

  Returns:
    true if the selection is to be inverted

### setInvertSelection

    public void setInvertSelection(boolean inverse)
