The cost of privacy: destruction of data-mining utility in anonymized data publishing
Re-identification is a major privacy threat to public datasets containing individual records. Many privacy protection algorithms rely on generalization and suppression of "qu...

Simple Test Strategies for Cost-Sensitive Decision Trees
We study cost-sensitive learning of decision trees that incorporate both test costs and misclassification costs. In particular, we first propose a lazy decision tree learning that ...

Decision trees with minimal costs
We propose a simple, novel and yet effective method for building and testing decision trees that minimizes the sum of the misclassification and test costs. More specifically, we f...

Cost-Based Sampling of Individual Instances
In many practical domains, misclassification costs can differ greatly and may be represented by class ratios, however, most learning algorithms struggle with skewed class distrib...

A new discrete particle swarm algorithm applied to attribute selection in a bioinformatics data set
Many data mining applications involve the task of building a model for predictive classification. The goal of such a model is to classify examples (records or data instances) into...
