    public class WekaTrainAssociator
    extends adams.flow.transformer.AbstractTransformer
    implements adams.multiprocess.JobRunnerSupporter
    Trains an associator based on the incoming dataset and outputs the built associator alongside the training header and rules (in a model container)..

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       weka.core.Instances
    - generates:
       adams.flow.container.WekaAssociatorContainer


    Container information:
    - adams.flow.container.WekaAssociatorContainer: Model, Header, Dataset, Rules

    -logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
        The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
        default: WARNING
        min-user-mode: Expert
     
    -name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
        The name of the actor.
        default: WekaTrainAssociator
     
    -annotation <adams.core.base.BaseAnnotation> (property: annotations)
        The annotations to attach to this actor.
        default:
     
    -skip <boolean> (property: skip)
        If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
        as it is.
        default: false
     
    -stop-flow-on-error <boolean> (property: stopFlowOnError)
        If set to true, the flow execution at this level gets stopped in case this
        actor encounters an error; the error gets propagated; useful for critical
        actors.
        default: false
        min-user-mode: Expert
     
    -silent <boolean> (property: silent)
        If enabled, then no errors are output in the console; Note: the enclosing
        actor handler must have this enabled as well.
        default: false
        min-user-mode: Expert
     
    -associator <adams.flow.core.CallableActorReference> (property: associator)
        The Weka associator to train on the input data.
        default: WekaAssociatorSetup
     
    -prefer-jobrunner <boolean> (property: preferJobRunner)
        If enabled, tries to offload the processing onto a adams.flow.standalone.JobRunnerInstance.
        default: false
