Interpretability analysis of fuzzy association rules supported by fingrams
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work extends fuzzy inference-grams (fingrams) to fuzzy association rules (FAR), yielding FARFingrams. Their analysis pays attention to interpretability issues. An important open problem in association rule mining is the huge number of frequent itemsets and interesting rules to uncover and communicate to the user. FAR-Fingrams address such problem through visual analysis. They ease the selection of rules according to the user’s preferences and quality criteria. A new metric to construct fingrams is proposed, reflecting the particularities of FAR. Finally, some of the potentials of FAR-Fingrams are overviewed over a real-world problem that deals with user-preferences.

Quest for Interpretability-Accuracy Trade-off Supported by Fingrams into the Fuzzy Modeling Tool GUAJE
Understand the behavior of Fuzzy Rule-based Systems (FRBSs) at inference level is a complex task that allows the designer to produce simpler and powerful systems. The fuzzy inference-grams –known as fingrams– establish a novel and mighty tool for understanding the structure and behavior of fuzzy systems. Fingrams represent FRBSs as social networks made of nodes representing fuzzy rules and edge...
متن کاملAnalyzing interpretability of fuzzy rule-based systems by means of fuzzy inference-grams
Since the proposal of Zadeh and Mamdani’s seminal ideas, interpretability is acknowledged as one of the most appreciated and valuable characteristics of fuzzy system identification methodologies. It represents the ability of fuzzy systems to formalize the behavior of a real system in a human understandable way. Interpretability analysis involves two main points of view: readability of the knowl...

متن کاملAnalysis of interpretability-accuracy tradeoff of fuzzy systems by multiobjective fuzzy genetics-based machine learning
This paper examines the interpretability-accuracy tradeoff in fuzzy rule-based classifiers using a multiobjective fuzzy genetics-based machine learning (GBML) algorithm. Our GBML algorithm is a hybrid version of Michigan and Pittsburgh approaches, which is implemented in the framework of evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO). Each fuzzy rule is represented by its antecedent fuzzy sets ...
