Understanding the Workbook Canvas

Understanding the Workbook Canvas

The workbook canvas is the area where you can build algorithm flows. When you open a new workbook, the following icons and fields are displayed.


The workbook screen has four panes, as given below.

  1. Task Pane: This pane displays the datasets and algorithms that can be used in the workbook.
  2. Function Pane: This pane displays the various functions that can be performed on the workbook.
  3. Workbook Canvas: This is the work area where you can drag-and-drop algorithms and datasets to create algorithm flows.
  4. VIEW LOG: This tab tracks the activities performed in the workbook and keeps a log (track) of it.

The table given below describes the fields and icons present on the Workbook Canvas.

Icon/Field


Description

Task pane


It displays the list of datasets and algorithms that can be used in the workbook.

Name of the workbook

It displays the title of the workbook.

      

Validate
  • It validates the workbook and notifies if there are any error.
  • A workbook or Workflow is validated before running.

Zoom

It helps to magnify the canvas to view detailing or move further away to take an overview look of the canvas.

Minimap

It displays a scaled down version of the workbook.

Save

It saves your workbook.

Save As

  • It saves your workbook with a different name.
  • You can save workbooks in the same workspace either in
    • same project
    • different project
    • a newly created project
  • While saving workbooks you can save them
    • In the same project with a different name
    • In a different project with the same/different name
    • In a new project (you can create a new project while using the save as option) while saving them
  • All properties/characteristics/data in the workbooks are also saved in the new entity.
  • If your workbook contains any variable created using the Manage Variable option, they are NOT carried forward in the newly saved location.

Run

It runs the created algorithm flow.

Hyperparameters

It is set of values of the algorithm properties at which the algorithm gives best results.


 (x) VariableIt is used anywhere in the workbook or workflow.

Snapshot

It takes the snapshot of the created algorithm flow. The snapshot can be restored later for version control.
For more information, refer to Using Snapshot for Version Control.

Workbook Canvas


It is the area to experiment with your datasets and algorithms. You can use the drag-and-drop method to insert datasets and algorithms in the workbook canvas.

VIEW LOG


It displays the logs of the algorithm flow that are run, along with the trace of algorithm properties.
