Rule extraction from Support Vector Machines : a geometric approach
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a new approach to rule extraction from Support Vector Machines. SVMs have been applied successfully in many areas with excellent generalization results; rule extraction can offer explanation capability to SVMs. We propose to approximate the SVM classification boundary through querying followed by clustering, searching and then to extract rules by solving an optimization problem. Theoretical proof and experimental results then indicate that the rules can be used to validate the SVM results, since maximum fidelity with high accuracy can be achieved.

A QUADRATIC MARGIN-BASED MODEL FOR WEIGHTING FUZZY CLASSIFICATION RULES INSPIRED BY SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINES
Recently, tuning the weights of the rules in Fuzzy Rule-Base Classification Systems is researched in order to improve the accuracy of classification. In this paper, a margin-based optimization model, inspired by Support Vector Machine classifiers, is proposed to compute these fuzzy rule weights. This approach not only considers both accuracy and generalization criteria in a single objective fu...

متن کاملFuzzy Apriori Rule Extraction Using Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization: The Case of Credit Scoring
There are many methods introduced to solve the credit scoring problem such as support vector machines, neural networks and rule based classifiers. Rule bases are more favourite in credit decision making because of their ability to explicitly distinguish between good and bad applicants.In this paper multi-objective particle swarm is applied to optimize fuzzy apriori rule base in credit scoring. ...

متن کاملRule Extraction from Support Vector Machines
Support vector machines (SVMs) are learning systems based on the statistical learning theory, which are exhibiting good generalization ability on real data sets. Nevertheless, a possible limitation of SVM is that they generate black box models. In this work, a procedure for rule extraction from support vector machines is proposed: the SVM+Prototypes method. This method allows to give explanatio...
