NER Tool - M Anchor How to Use?

[hellyars]

How can you leverage the M output anchor on the NER tool.  The NER page says what it does, but it does not say how to use it.  There is no sample workflow and the draft tool example workflow does not include an example involving the M output anchor?

The M output anchor: Output the model object so you can reuse it later.

I don't want to re-run the Train w/ Entities every time I run the workflow.

Hi @hellyars - You can save your model as a yxdb file and then reuse with a Predict tool. It will look like this:

In fact you can save Assisted Modelling models and R Predictive Models as well.

@ArtApa   Great.  Thank you.  It would be awesome if they include something along these lines in the final sample tool.  The draft sample tool does not include an M output anchor example.  And if I recall correctly, the tool's page makes not mention of the Predict Tool.
