چکیده

We present the Temporal Investigation Method for Enregistered Record Sequences II (TIMERS II), which can be used to classify the relationship between a decision attribute and a number of condition attributes as instantaneous, causal, or acausal. In this paper we consider it possible to refer to both previous and next values of attributes in temporal rules, and thus enhance the definition of acausality. We also present a new algorithm for distinguishing between causality and acausality.

An Extension to the TIMERS Method

In this paper we present TIMERS II (Temporal Investigation Method for Enregistered Record Sequences II). Assuming that the effects take time to manifest, TIMERS II merges the input records and brings the causes and effects together. The output is in the form of a set of decision rules. The condition attributes’ values could have been observed in the past or the future relative to the decision a...

Development of an Efficient Hybrid Method for Motif Discovery in DNA Sequences

This work presents a hybrid method for motif discovery in DNA sequences. The proposed method called SPSO-Lk, borrows the concept of Chebyshev polynomials and uses the stochastic local search to improve the performance of the basic PSO algorithm as a motif finder. The Chebyshev polynomial concept encourages us to use a linear combination of previously discovered velocities beyond that proposed b...
