Data mining is a very active and rapidly growing research area in the field of computer science. Its goal is to obtain useful knowledge for users from a database. Association rule mining from a database is one of the most well-known data mining techniques. In general, a large number of if-then rules are extracted by specifying minimum support and confidence levels. They are, however, too complicated...
Genetic fuzzy rule selection has been successfully used to design accurate and interpretable fuzzy classifiers from numerical data. In our former study, we proposed its parallel distributed implementation which can drastically decrease the computational time by dividing both a population and a training data set into sub-groups. In this paper, we examine the effect of data reduction on the generalization...
The performances of conventional crisp and fuzzy K-nearest neighbor (K-NN) algorithms trained using finite samples tends to be poor . With ldquoholesrdquo in the training data, it is unlikely that the decision area formed can actually represent the underlying data distribution. There is a need to capture more useful information from the limited training samples, therefore we propose a new fuzzy rule-based...
The classification for the noisy training data in high dimension suffers from concurrent negative effects by noise and irrelevant/redundant features. Noise disrupts the training data and irrelevant/redundant features prevent the classifier from picking relevant features in building the model. Therefore they may reduce classification accuracy. This paper introduces a novel approach to improve the quality...
The k-nearest neighbor(k-NN) is improved by applying rough set and distance functions with relearning and ensemble computations to classify data with the higher accuracy values. Then, the proposed relearning and combining ensemble computations are an effective technique for improving accuracy. We develop a new approach to combine kNN classifier based on rough set and distance functions with relearning...
Decision tree classification is one of the most practical and effective methods which is used in inductive learning. Many different approaches, which are usually used for decision making and prediction, have been invented to construct decision tree classifiers. These approaches try to optimize parameters such as accuracy, speed of classification, size of constructed trees, learning speed, and the...
This paper considers the automatic design of fuzzy-rule-based classification systems from labeled data. The performance of classifiers and the interpretability of generated rules are of major importance in these systems. In past research, some genetic-based algorithms have been used for the rule learning process. These genetic fuzzy systems have utilized different approaches to encode rules. In this...
