Package com.groiss.ml.field

Class ProcessField

java.lang.Object

com.groiss.ml.field.ProcessField

All Implemented Interfaces:

Field

public abstract class ProcessField
extends Object
implements Field

A Field of this kind usually does not represent a field of a process form. Instead it can be used to mix in other properties which then can be used as an input for a machine learning algorithm.
