IT infrastructures can be quantitatively described by attributes, like performance or energy efficiency. Ever-changing user demands and economic attempts require varying short-term and long-term decisions regarding the alignment of an IT infrastructure and particularly its attributes to this dynamic surrounding. Potentially conflicting attribute goals and the central role of IT infrastructures ...

Handling missing attribute values is the greatest challenging process in data analysis. There are so many approaches that can be adopted to handle the missing attributes. In this paper, a comparative analysis is made of an incomplete dataset for future prediction using rough set approach and random tree generation in data mining. The result of simple classification technique (using random tree ...

We introduce the notion of high order decision rules. While a standard decision rule expresses connections between attribute values of the same object, a high order decision rule expresses connections of different objects in terms of their attribute values. An example of high order decision rules may state that “if an object x is related to another object y with respect to an attribute a, then ...

Attribute grammars provide a formal yet intuitive notation for specifying the static semantics of programming languages and consequently have been used in various compiler generation systems. Their use, however, need not be limited to this. With a little change in perspective, many programs may be regarded as interpreters and constructed as executable attribute grammars. The major advantage is ...

The rapid growing of information technology (IT) motivates and makes competitive advantages in health care industry. Nowadays, many hospitals try to build a successful customer relationship management (CRM) to recognize target and potential patients, increase patient loyalty and satisfaction and finally maximize their profitability. Many hospitals have large data warehouses containing customer ...

We present a structured inference approach in deep neural networks for multiple attribute prediction. In attribute prediction, a common approach is to learn independent classifiers on top of a good feature representation. However, such classifiers assume conditional independence on features and do not explicitly consider the dependency between attributes in the inference process. We propose to ...

In this paper, we propose a novel affinity learning based framework for mixed data clustering, which includes: how to process data with mixed-type attributes, how to learn affinities between data points, and how to exploit the learned affinities for clustering. In the proposed framework, each original data attribute is represented with several abstract objects defined according to the specific ...
