An efficient method for creating benchmark classifications for automatic workpiece classification systems

A similarity inference method for reducing the cost of pair comparison

“…Some similarity inference methods have been developed in the literature [12,13]. These methods include: (1) the Hamming distance method [13,14]; (2) the max-min method [12,15]; (3) the interval average method [12]; and (4) the weighing interval average method [13].…”

“…These methods include: (1) the Hamming distance method [13,14]; (2) the max-min method [12,15]; (3) the interval average method [12]; and (4) the weighing interval average method [13]. However, these four methods are not accurate enough in inferring the unknown data.…”
