چکیده

The problem of concept formation and learning is examined from the viewpoint of granular computing. Correspondences are drawn between granules and concepts, between granulations and classifications, and between relations over granules and relations over concepts. Two learning strategies are investigated. A global attribute-oriented strategy searches for a good partition of a universe of objects and a local attribute-value-oriented strategy searches for a good covering. The proposed granular computing paradigm for concept learning offers twofold benefits. Results from concept formulation and learning enrich granular computing and a granular computing viewpoint sheds new light on concept formulation and learning.

An Application on Text Classification Based on Granular Computing ∗

Machine learning is the key to text classification, a granular computing approach to machine learning is applied to learning classification rules by considering the two basic issues: concept formation and concept relationships identification. In this paper, we concentrate on the selection of a single granule in each step to construct a granule network. A classification rule induction method is ...

Modal Characterization of Visibility and Focus

Granular computing, based on rough set theory [1, 2], provides the basis for a new computing paradigm [3, 4]. Applying granular computing to logical reasoning processes, we have proposed granular reasoning for connecting possible world semantics and granular computing [5], and developed a granular reasoning framework called a zooming reasoning system [6–8]. The key concept of zooming reasoning ...

A generalized concept-cognitive learning: A machine learning viewpoint

Concept-cognitive learning (CCL) is a hot topic in recent years, and it has attracted much attention from the communities of formal concept analysis, granular computing and cognitive computing. However, the relationship among cognitive computing (CC), conceptcognitive computing (CCC) and CCL is not clearly described. To this end, we explain the relationship of CC, CCC and CCL. Then, we propose ...

INTERVAL ANALYSIS-BASED HYPERBOX GRANULAR COMPUTING CLASSIFICATION ALGORITHMS

Representation of a granule, relation and operation between two granules are mainly researched in granular computing. Hyperbox granular computing classification algorithms (HBGrC) are proposed based on interval analysis. Firstly, a granule is represented as the hyperbox which is the Cartesian product of $N$ intervals for classification in the $N$-dimensional space. Secondly, the relation betwee...
