Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for generating prediction queries to help a user build and execute prediction queries. A user interface (UI) is provided that is easy to use and understand in connection with the generation of a prediction query for data mining. The UI can be instantiated from a variety of disparate sources that may request query building services. While prediction queries and relational queries are quite different, the UI enables prediction queries to be built in a manner that is similar to the way relational queries are built. In one embodiment, the main screen of the UI includes four main components: (1) a table column mapping area, (3) a selection grid area, (4) a query text display area and (5) a query result grid area. In one embodiment, the query text display area and the query result grid area are initially not presented to the user.
