Active database systems (ADBS) can react to the occurrence of predefined events automatically by defining a collection of active rules. One of the most important modules of ADBS is the rule scheduler which has considerable impact on performance and efficiency of ADBS. The Rule scheduler selects a rule to execute (evaluate) its action (condition) section in each time through the rules, which are...

This paper presents amethod for an automatic and complete design of fuzzy systems fromdata. Themain objective is to build fuzzy systems with a user-controllable trade-off between accuracy and interpretability. Whereas criteria for accuracy mostly follow straightforwardly from the application, definition of interpretability and its criteria are subject to controversial discussion. For this reaso...

Introduction. Iranian talented university students who take term averages below 17 for at least twice can’t use facilities of educational legislation for gifted and talented students in universities. This study deals with validity of this rule. Methods. Renzullis three ring conception of giftedness was selected as gifted definition. Obtaining grade point averages equal or more than 15 was rega...

This final rule implements Section 10332 of the Affordable Care Act regarding the release and use of standardized extracts of Medicare claims data for qualified entities to measure the performance of providers of services (referred to as providers) and suppliers. This rule explains how entities can become qualified by CMS to receive standardized extracts of claims data under Medicare Parts A, B...

In this paper, we demonstrate that simple fuzzy rule-based classification systems with high interpretability are obtained through multiobjective genetic rule selection. In our approach, first a prespecified number of candidate fuzzy rules are extracted from numerical data in a heuristic manner using rule evaluation criteria. Then multiobjective genetic rule selection is applied to the extracted...

This paper shows how a small number of simple fuzzy if-then rules can be selected for pattern classi-cation problems with many continuous attributes. Our approach consists of two phases: candidate rule generation by rule evaluation measures in data mining and rule selection by multi-objective evolutionary algorithms. In our approach, -rst candidate fuzzy if-then rules are generated from numeric...

Active database systems (ADBS) can, automatically, react to the occurrence of predefined events by definition a collection of active rules. One of the most important modules of ADBS is the rule scheduler, which has considerable impact on performance and efficiency of ADBS. Rule scheduler selects a rule to execute in each time through the rules, which are ready for execution. We have already eva...
