Title
Learning rules from numerical data by combining geometric and graph-theoretic approach
Abstract
We present a new method for learning rules from numerical data by using a combination of geometric and graph-theoretic methods. Three different graphs are defined to capture the geometric properties of the data-set. The graphs G(P) and G(N) capture the intra-class properties of the set of positive points P and the set of negative points N, respectively, and the graph G(P, N) captures the inter-class properties between P and N. We derive rules from these graphs by means of graph partitioning. Our method tends to give fewer rules than that obtained by decision-tree based methods. The complexity of our algorithm is O(M-3), where M = \P\ + \N\. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
