چکیده

This paper addresses the well-known data mining task of discovering classification rules [5]. A classification rule is a prediction rule of the form: IF THEN . An example of a classification rule is: “IF (Age > 25) AND (Salary > $50,000) THEN (Credit = good)”. Classification rules in this format have the advantage of being intuitively comprehensible for the user, which is important from a data mining viewpoint. Classification rules are normally expressed in disjunctive normal form, where each rule represents a disjunct and each rule condition represents a conjunct – i.e., the conditions in a rule antecedent are connected by a logical conjunction (AND) operator. In this context, a small disjunct can be defined as a rule which covers a small number of training examples (records, or cases) [6].
