Towards a Partitioning of the Input Space of Boolean Networks: Variable Selection Using Bagging
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an algorithm that allows to select the input variables of Boolean networks from incomplete data. More precisely, sets of input variables, instead of single variables, are evaluated using mutual information to find the combination that maximizes the mutual information of input and output variables. To account for the incompleteness of the data bootstrap aggregation is used to find a stable solution that is numerically demonstrated to be superior in many cases to the solution found by using the complete data set all at once.

The main focus in this study is on data pre-processing, reduction in number of inputs or input space size reduction the purpose of which is the justified generalization of data set in smaller dimensions without losing the most significant data. In case the input space is large, the most important input variables can be identified from which insignificant variables are eliminated, or a variable ...

متن کاملEnsemble of M5 Model Tree Based Modelling of Sodium Adsorption Ratio
This work reports the results of four ensemble approaches with the M5 model tree as the base regression model to anticipate Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR). Ensemble methods that combine the output of multiple regression models have been found to be more accurate than any of the individual models making up the ensemble. In this study additive boosting, bagging, rotation forest and random subspace...
متن کاملForecasting of rainfall using different input selection methods on climate signals for neural network inputs
Long-term prediction of precipitation in planning and managing water resources, especially in arid and semi-arid countries such as Iran, has a great importance. In this paper, a method for predicting long-term precipitation using weather signals and artificial neural networks is presented. For this purpose, climatic data (large-scale signals) and meteorological data (local precipitation and tem...
