Explains grain and additivity in dimensional models

K-659 · Knowledge knobit · Activity: Design the physical data model · Competence: Data modelling

One row means one thing; measures are additive, semi-additive or non-additive.

Can AI do this?

AI does this well Most of the tested AI models master this. 7 of 10 models master it.

Mastered means a probability of at least 90% that the model has this knobit, estimated from its graded answers. “Not shown” means the answers do not settle it either way. How the models are tested.

What it looks like in practice

Expected result: One row means one thing; measures are additive, semi-additive or non-additive

How it is assessed: States the grain of sample fact tables and the additivity of their measures
