• Key Concepts: 
  Iteration is a process in SAP Predictive Analytics that allows users to refine their models and improve their accuracy. It is a process of repeating the same steps multiple times, each time making small changes to the model parameters. This allows users to find the optimal combination of parameters that will yield the best results. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use iteration in SAP Predictive Analytics, users must first define the parameters they want to adjust. This can include things like the number of layers in a neural network, the learning rate, or the number of iterations. Once these parameters have been defined, users can then run multiple iterations of their model, adjusting the parameters each time. After each iteration, users can compare the results and decide which combination of parameters yields the best results. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using iteration in SAP Predictive Analytics, it is important to remember that it is a trial-and-error process. It is important to start with reasonable values for each parameter and then adjust them as needed. Additionally, it is important to keep track of which combinations of parameters yield the best results so that they can be used in future iterations.
