110414: Smoothed step (Hinge) and Discrete step (Threshold) cannot both be used as basis expansions.

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Description

For the Explanatory Variable Expansions (Basis Functions) parameter, the Smoothed step (Hinge) and Discrete step (Threshold) options cannot both be chosen. Using both a step function and a smoothed step function creates strong dependence between each basis function that results in unstable predictions.

Solution

Remove one of the two basis expansions.
