Evaluation of Linguistic Labels Used in Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Linguistic labels such as high, medium, and low are commonly used in different applications. Researchers in psychometrics argue that before adding new labels to applications, the labels must be empirically evaluated. In this paper, we explain the process of selecting labels for a security assessment application. We also show how we evaluate the labels empirically using a sample population from Amazon Mechanical Turk users. This research is supported by grants from the National Security Agency and King Abdul-Aziz University.

متن کاملExploiting Associations between Class Labels in Multi-label Classification
Multi-label classification has many applications in the text categorization, biology and medical diagnosis, in which multiple class labels can be assigned to each training instance simultaneously. As it is often the case that there are relationships between the labels, extracting the existing relationships between the labels and taking advantage of them during the training or prediction phases ...
متن کاملA FUZZY MODEL FOR ASSESSMENT PROCESSES
The methods of assessing the individuals’ performance usually applied in practice are based on principles of the bivalent logic (yes-no). However, fuzzy logic, due to its nature of including multiple values, offers a wider and richer field of resources for this purpose. In this paper we use principles of fuzzy logic in developing a new method for assessing the performance of groups of individua...
