Abstract To solve the problem of ambiguous attribute selection in existing decision tree classification algorithms, a construction method based on information entropy, PCMIgr, is proposed. PCMIgr heuristic greedy strategy. At each node, when it necessary to select attributes for division, with highest gain ratio selected. The main innovation this that traditional optimized, and efficiency const...

We discuss the gain in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) recently reported by Liu et al. [Phys. Rev. E 63, 051912 (2001)] in the Hodgkin-Huxley neuronal model. We show first that the possibility of signal-to-noise ratio enhancements can be checked by consideration of the statistical characteristics of switching between the system states, and we examine how the SNR depends on the shape of a periodic s...

The gain-loss ratio is known to enjoy very good properties from a normative point of view. As a confirmation, we show that the best market gain-loss ratio in the presence of a random endowment is an acceptability index, and we provide its dual representation for general probability spaces. However, the gain-loss ratio was designed for finite Ω and works best in that case. For general Ω and in m...

This paper examines a decision-tree framework for instance-space decomposition. According to the framework, the original instance-space is hierarchically partitioned into multiple subspaces and a distinct classifier is assigned to each subspace. Subsequently, an unlabeled, previously-unseen instance is classified by employing the classifier that was assigned to the subspace to which the instanc...

Privacy-preservation is a step in data mining that tries to safeguard sensitive information from unsanctioned disclosure and hence protecting individual data records and their privacy. There are various privacy preservation techniques like k-anonymity, l-diversity and t-closeness and data perturbation. In this paper k-anonymity privacy protection technique is applied to high dimensional dataset...

Impaired glucose tolerance has several adverse effects on growing fetus. In this study we evaluated the effect of excessive weight gain during pregnancy on the risk of glucose intolerance in pregnant women. A case-control study was conducted through which the glucose tolerance status after 100 gram oral glucose intake was compared between 60 pregnant women with maximum 10 weeks of gestation and...

two hundred eighty days old male broiler chicks(ross strain) were randomly distributed into seven groups with four replicates (10 birds in each replicate) and were fed diets supplemented with different dietary fat sources.the results indicated that the different dietary treatments did not affect weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio at 21 d (p>0.05). however, addition of dietary fa...
