Symbolic discrimination rules

From MaRDI portal





A tree-growing algorithm is proposed in order to treat explicitly probabilistic data. A population of \(n\) objects partitioned into \(m\) classes is considered. Each object is formally described by symbolic data of probabilistic assertion type. The aim is: (i) to describe in the form of a binary tree the various classes of the given partition; (ii) to build a decision rule (discrimination or classification rule) which is able to classify new objects (with unknown class membership) to one class of the given partition. Non-probabilistic Boolean descriptions can also be handled in the proposed framework by transforming to modal variables with uniform probability functions. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1039.62501].
