Title
The Problem with Noise and Small Disjuncts
Abstract
Many systems that learn from examples expressthe learned concept as a disjunction. Thosedisjuncts that cover only a few examples arereferred to as small disjuncts. The problem withsmall disjuncts is that they have a much highererror rate than large disjuncts but are necessary toachieve a high level of predictive accuracy. Thispaper investigates the effect of noise on smalldisjuncts. In particular, we show that when noiseis added to two real-world domains, a significant,and...
