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 ...

decision-tree algorithms provide one of the most popular methodologies for symbolic knowledge acquisition. the resulting knowledge, a symbolic decision tree along with a simple inference mechanism, has been praised for comprehensibility. the most comprehensible decision trees have been designed for perfect symbolic data. classical crisp decision trees (dt) are widely applied to classification t...

the concept of intelligently controlling the search process of gravitational search algorithm (gsa) is introduced to develop a novel data mining technique. the proposed method is called fuzzy gsa miner (fgsa-miner). at first a fuzzy controller is designed for adaptively controlling the gravitational coefficient and the number of effective objects, as two important parameters which play major ro...

fuzzy cognitive maps (fcms) have successfully been applied in numerous domains to show the relations between essential components in complex systems. in this paper, a novel learning method is proposed to construct fcms based on historical data and by using meta-heuristic: genetic algorithm (ga), simulated annealing (sa), and tabu search (ts). implementation of the proposed method has demonstrat...

web usage mining (wum) is the automatic discovering of hidden informationof user access pattern from the web log data. frequent pattern discovery is one ofthe main techniques in wum that can be used to implement recommender systems,forecast user`s navigational behaviour, and personalize web sites. many algorithmshave been suggested on obtaining frequent user navigation patterns. this paperprese...

The Internet has unlimited resources of knowledge and is widely used in many applications. Web mining plays an important role in discovering such knowledge, it is roughly divided into three categories : Web Content Mining , Web Usage Mining and Web Structure Mining. The web consists of imprecise, incomplete and uncertain data and knowledge. Fuzzy Set Theory is often used to handle such data. Se...

Data mining is the process of extracting desirable knowledge or interesting patterns from existing databases for specific purposes. Many types of knowledge and technology have been proposed for data mining. Among them, finding association rules from transaction data is most commonly seen. Most studies have shown how binary valued transaction data may be handled. Transaction data in real-world a...

This paper surveys some genetic-fuzzy data mining techniques for mining both membership functions and fuzzy association rules. The motivation from crisp mining to fuzzy mining will be first described. Three types of genetic-fuzzy data mining approaches are then described according to the utilized methods and different mining problems, including Integrated GeneticFuzzy approaches for items with ...

AbsfracfData mining has a lot of e-Commerce applications. The key problem is how to tind useful hidden patterns for better business applications. For these problems, granular fuzzy Web intelligence techniques are used to implement the granular fuzzy Web data mining system for available historical data of the credit company customers. Fuzzy computing and granular computing are used to design the...
