Rule-based machine learning (RBML) is a term in computer science intended to encompass any machine learning method that identifies, learns, or evolves 'rules' to store, manipulate or apply. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The defining characteristic of a rule-based machine learner is the identification and utilization of a set of relational rules that ...
An associative classifier (AC) is a kind of supervised learning model that uses association rules to assign a target value. The term associative classification was coined by Bing Liu et al., [1] in which the authors defined a model made of rules "whose right-hand side are restricted to the classification class attribute".
A step-wise schematic illustrating a generic Michigan-style learning classifier system learning cycle performing supervised learning. Keeping in mind that LCS is a paradigm for genetic-based machine learning rather than a specific method, the following outlines key elements of a generic, modern (i.e. post-XCS) LCS algorithm.
Association rule learning is a rule-based machine learning method for discovering interesting relations between variables in large databases. It is intended to identify strong rules discovered in databases using some measures of interestingness. [ 1 ]
Rule-based modeling is a modeling approach that uses a set of rules that indirectly specifies a mathematical model. The rule-set can either be translated into a model such as Markov chains or differential equations, or be treated using tools that directly work on the rule-set in place of a translated model, as the latter is typically much bigger.
Data mining in general and rule induction in detail are trying to create algorithms without human programming but with analyzing existing data structures. [ 1 ] : 415- In the easiest case, a rule is expressed with “if-then statements” and was created with the ID3 algorithm for decision tree learning.
The splitting is based on a set of splitting rules based on classification features. [4] This process is repeated on each derived subset in a recursive manner called recursive partitioning. The recursion is completed when the subset at a node has all the same values of the target variable, or when splitting no longer adds value to the predictions.
The CN2 induction algorithm is a learning algorithm for rule induction. [1] It is designed to work even when the training data is imperfect. It is based on ideas from the AQ algorithm and the ID3 algorithm. As a consequence it creates a rule set like that created by AQ but is able to handle noisy data like ID3.
