Decision tables classifying customers into groups of different profitability are used for mining rules classifying customers. Attributes are divided into two groups: stable and flexible. By stable attributes we mean attributes which values can not be changed by a bank (age, marital status, number of children are the examples). On the other hand attributes (like percentage rate or loan approval to buy a house in certain area) which values can be changed or influenced by a bank are called flexible. Rules are extracted from a decision table given preference to flexible attributes. This new class of rules forms a special repository of rules from which new rules called actionrules are constructed. They show what actions should be taken to improve the profitability of customers.
Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of multi-label classification of emotions in musical recordings. The data set contains 875 samples (30 seconds each). The samples were manually labelled into 13 classes, without limits regarding the number of labels for each sample. The experiments and the results are discussed in this paper.
We consider a consensus reaching process in a group of individuals meant as an attempt to make preferences of the individuals more and more similar, that is, getting closer and closer to consensus. We assume a general form of intuitionistic fuzzy preferences and a soft definition of consensus that is basically meant as an agreement of a considerable (e.g., most, almost all) majority of individuals in regards to a considerable majority of alternatives. The consensus reaching process is meant to be run by a moderator who tries to get the group of individuals closer and closer to consensus by argumentation, persuasion, etc. The moderator is to be supported by some additional information, exemplified by more detailed information on which individuals are critical as, for instance, they are willing to change their testimonies or are stubborn, which pairs of options make the reaching of consensus difficult, etc. In this paper we extend this paradigm proposed and employed in our former works with the use of a novel data mining tool, so called action rules which make it possible to more clearly indicate and suggest to the moderator with which experts and with respect to which option it may be expedient to deal. We show the usefulness of this new approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
