A new discretization algorithm based on difference-similitude set theory (DSST) is presented. It is different from the known algorithms because the reduction in the information system is prior to the data discretization. Our algorithm discretizes the attribute values by analyzing difference sets of the newly-built decision table. The discretization is separated into three steps. The first step is...
