Potential Applications of Granular Computing in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we argue that granular computing may have many potential applications in knowledge discovery and data mining. Three related basic operations of granular computing are examined: granulation of the universe, characterization of granules, and relationships between granules. Their connections to the tasks of knowledge discovery and data mining are analyzed.

Expert discovery is a quest in search of finding an answer to a question: “Who is the best expert of a specific subject in a particular domain within peculiar array of parameters?” Expert with domain knowledge in any field is crucial for consulting in industry, academia and scientific community. Aim of this study is to address the issues for expert-finding task in real-world community. Collabor...
متن کاملGranular Computing, Computer Security andWeb Intelligence
What is granular computing? As we have said in [6]: There are no mathematically valid formal definitions yet. Informally, any computing theory/technology that involves elements and granules (generalized subsets) may be called granular computing (GrC). Intuitively, elements are the data, and granules are the basic knowledge. So granular computing includes data and knowledge computing/engineering...

The key to granular computing is to make use of granules in problem solving. Classification is one of the well studied problems in machine learning and data mining as it involves of discovery knowledge from large databases. We presents a granular computing view to classification problems and propose a granular computing approach to classification in this paper. The ID3 [8] and PRISM [2] algorit...
متن کاملA Novel Algorithm for Classification Rule Discovery based on Concept
This study established concept elements based on granular computing theory and the isomorphic relation between rated scales in formal concept analysis (FCA) and constructed the correlation of the concept elements. A concept granule was constructed by studying the mapping relation between concept elements. The common polymerization and extension forms of the concept granule were given. We studie...
