Point-Biserial Correlation Analysis of Fuzzy Attributes

چکیده

Previous studies have presented correlation analyses among fuzzy attributes. This study proposes a correlation analysis method among crisp attributes and fuzzy attributes to investigate their linear relationships. If A and B are two attributes, A is a nominal-dichotomous attribute, and B is a fuzzy attribute. Thus, identifying the relationship between A and B is possible by using the pointbiserial correlation analysis. The fuzzy point-biserial correlation analysis is defined and derived, using the membership grades of fuzzy attributes. Using the fuzzy point-biserial correlation analysis is feasible if A is a bimodal distribution, but not a real nominal-dichotomous attribute, such as crime youth versus non-crime youth, illiterate versus non-illiterate person, and mental deficiency versus normal intelligence. An experimental sample illustrates that our proposed method is simpler and faster than the traditional correlation analysis.

Background: In this paper, a generic hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) model for clustering various ECG beats according to weights of attributes is proposed. A comprehensive review of the electrocardiogram signal classification and segmentation methodologies indicates that algorithms which are able to effectively handle the nonstationary and uncertainty of the signals should be used for ECG analysis. Ex...

Serial Correlation Coefficient

In this paper, we investigate the relation between two variables where the one is measured with the ratio or interval scale and the other with the nominal. In this cases, we use from serial correlation coefficient. Computation of some serial coefficient such as biserial and point-biserial coefficient is carried out with some examples and R program.

Derived fuzzy importance of attributes based on the weakest triangular norm-based fuzzy arithmetic and applications to the hotel services

The correlation between the performance of attributes and the overallsatisfaction such as they are perceived by the customers is often used tocalculate the importance of attributes in the crisp case. Recently, the methodwas extended, based on the standard Zadeh extension principle, to the fuzzycase, taking into account the specificity of the human thinking. Thedifficulties of calculation are im...

Semi-Partial Correlation of Fuzzy Sets

In fuzzy data analysis, a simple correlation coefficient provides us with a good sense of linear relationship between two fuzzy attributes, while a partial correlation coefficient shows the relationship between two fuzzy attributes when the influences of other fuzzy attributes are partialed out from both of the two attributes. But, in some practical applications, we need to use the correlation ...
