Use Nested Test tool to reduce Neural Netwrok models

I am trying to pare down the number of input variables for a neural network model.  Is it possible to use the Nested Test tool to evaluate the significance of predictor variables, or is that only usable for regression models?

Hi @WonderHog

 

The Nested Test Tool will only work for comparing pairs of regression models, where one model has a subset of variables of the other model. To compare versions of Neural Network Models, I would recommend looking at the Model Comparison Tool available for download of the predictive district of the Alteryx Gallery. 

 

Thanks!
