An Empirical Study of the Noise Impact on Cost-Sensitive Learning

چکیده
In this paper, we perform an empirical study of the impact of noise on cost-sensitive (CS) learning, through observations on how a CS learner reacts to the mislabeled training examples in terms of misclassification cost and classification accuracy. Our empirical results and theoretical analysis indicate that mislabeled training examples can raise serious concerns for cost-sensitive classification, especially when misclassifying some classes becomes extremely expensive. Compared to general inductive learning, the problem of noise handling and data cleansing is more crucial, and should be carefully investigated to ensure the success of CS learning.

he empirical studies have shown that cost advantages can occur due to economies of scale and economies of learning. However, a few studies have attempted to distinguish between these two effects on reducing costs. This paper is the first attempt on recognizing the impact of learning on reducing the cost with distinguishing the effect of economies of scale in Iran. Therefore, this study aims to ...

Background: Acoustic noise is one of the universal pollutants of modern society. Although the high level of noise adverse effects on human hearing has been known for many years, non-auditory effects of noise such as effects on cognition, learning, memory and reading, especially on children, have been less considered. Factors which have negative impact on these features can also have a negat...

Background The learning environment dramatically affects the learning outcomes of students. Noise, inappropriate temperature, insufficient light, overcrowded classes, misplaced boards and inappropriate classroom layout all make up factors that could be confounding variables distracting students in class. This study was conducted to examine the effect of noise in educational institutions on the ...
