On the lower right side of the window is the project pane, used to create and manage data mining projects (groups of files related to a data mining task). There are two ways to view projects you create in IBM® SPSS® Modeler—in the Classes view and the CRISP-DM view.

CRISP-DM view

The CRISP-DM tab provides a way to organize projects according to the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining, an industry-proven, nonproprietary methodology. For both experienced and first-time data miners, using the CRISP-DM tool will help you to better organize and communicate your efforts.

The Classes tab provides a way to organize your work in IBM SPSS Modeler categorically—by the types of objects you create. This view is useful when taking inventory of data, streams, and models.
