Scoring and Modeling Parameters
When deploying a stream to IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deplo yment Services, you can choose
which parame ters can be viewed or edited each time the model is updated or scored. For example,
you might specify maximu m and minimum values, or some other value that may be sub ject to
change each time a job is run.

Scoring Parameters dialog box
E To make a parameter visible so it can be viewed or edited after the stream is deployed, select it
from the list in the d ialog box.
The list of available parameters is dened on the Parame ters tab in the stream properties dialog
box. For more informatio n, see the topic Setting Stream and Session Paramet ers in Chapter 5
on p. 68.
The Scoring Branch
If you are deploying a stream, one branch of the stream must be designate d as the scoring branch
(that is, the one containing the scoring node). When you designate a branch as the scori ng
branch, that branch is highlighted on the stream canvas, as is the model link to the nugget on the
scoring branch. This visual representation is particularly useful in comple x streams with multiple
branches, where th e scoring branch might not be immediately obvious.
Note: Only one stream branch can be designated as the scoring branch.
