Title
Variable Ordering in the Conditional Independence Bayesian Classifier Induction Process: An Evolutionary Approach
Abstract
This work proposes, implements and discusses a hybrid Bayes/Genetic collaboration (VOGACMarkovPC) designed to induce Conditional Independence Bayesian Classifiers from data. The main contribution is the use of MarkovPC algorithm in order to reduce the computational complexity of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) designed to explore the Variable Orderings (VOs) in order to optimize the induced classifiers. Experiments performed in a number of datasets revealed that VOGAC-MarkovPC required less than 25% of the time demanded by VOGAC-PC on average. In addition, when concerning the classification accuracy, VOGAC-MakovPC performed as well as VOGAC-PC did.
