Evaluation

Once the CDT has been generated, you can evaluate it and make adjustments to parameters used in the CDT calculation during the Evaluation stage. Only the current version of the CDT, the one just generated in the Calculation stage, can be assessed in the Evaluation stage.

Process

Here is the high-level process for using the Evaluation stage to prune the results of the CDT calculation.

1. If you have determined that you need to prune the results of the calculation, enter appropriate values into the text boxes in the Pruning Setup area.

2. Click Run to start the pruning process.

3. Review the pruning results in the Pruning Results section and in the Pruning histograms.

4. After reviewing the results, if necessary, make changes to the values for the pruning and re-run the stage.

5. When you are satisfied with the results, click Next to go to the Escalation stage.
