متن کاملUNSPECIFIED Genetic programming for knowledge discovery in chest pain diagnosis
This work aims at discovering classification rules for diagnosing certain pathologies. These rules are capable of discriminating among 12 different pathologies, whose main symptom is chest pain. In order to discover these rules we have used genetic programming as well as some concepts of data mining, with emphasis on the discovery of comprehensible knowledge. The fitness function used combines ...
متن کاملA Distributed-Population Genetic Algorithm for Discovering Interesting Prediction Rules
In data mining the quality of prediction rules basically involves three criteria: accuracy, comprehensible and interestingness. The majority of the rule induction literature focuses on discovering accurate, comprehensible rules. In this paper we also take these two criteria into account, but we go beyond them in the sense that we aim at discovering rules that are interesting (surprising) for th...
متن کاملDiscovering interesting classification rules with genetic programming
Data mining deals with the problem of discovering novel and interesting knowledge from large amount of data. This problem is often performed heuristically when the extraction of patterns is difficult using standard query mechanisms or classical statistical methods. In this paper a genetic programming framework, capable of performing an automatic discovery of classification rules easily comprehe...
متن کاملAn Integrated DEA and Data Mining Approach for Performance Assessment
This paper presents a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model combined with Bootstrapping to assess performance of one of the Data mining Algorithms. We applied a two-step process for performance productivity analysis of insurance branches within a case study. First, using a DEA model, the study analyzes the productivity of eighteen decision-making units (DMUs). Using a Malmquist index, DEA deter...
