Combining Multiple Sets of Rules for Improving Classification Via Measuring Their Closenesses
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a new method for measuring the closeness of multiple sets of rules that are combined using Dempster’s rule of combination to improve classification performance. The closeness provides an insight into combining multiple sets of rules in classification − in what circumambience the performance of combinations of some sets of rules using Dempster’s rule is better than that of others. Experiments have been carried out over the 20-newsgroups benchmark data collection, and the empirical results show that when the closeness between two sets of rules is higher than that of others, the performance of its combination using Dempster’s rule is better than the others.

A hybrid filter-based feature selection method via hesitant fuzzy and rough sets concepts
High dimensional microarray datasets are difficult to classify since they have many features with small number ofinstances and imbalanced distribution of classes. This paper proposes a filter-based feature selection method to improvethe classification performance of microarray datasets by selecting the significant features. Combining the concepts ofrough sets, weighted rough set, fuzzy rough se...
متن کاملOn Mining Fuzzy Classification Rules for Imbalanced Data
Fuzzy rule-based classification system (FRBCS) is a popular machine learning technique for classification purposes. One of the major issues when applying it on imbalanced data sets is its biased to the majority class, such that, it performs poorly in respect to the minority class. However many cases the minority classes are more important than the majority ones. In this paper, we have extended ...

متن کاملCombining Rules for Text Categorization Using Dempster's Rule of Combination
In this paper, we present an investigation into the combination of rules for text categorization using Dempster’s rule of combination. We first propose a boosting-like technique for generating multiple sets of rules based on rough set theory, and then describe how to use Dempster’s rule of combination to combine the classification decisions produced by multiple sets of rules. We apply these met...
