We introduce a new genetic operator, Reduction, that rectifies decision trees not correct syntactically and at the same time removes the redundant sections within, while preservin...
Emerging patterns (EPs) are associations of features whose frequencies increase significantly from one class to another. They have been proven useful to build powerful classifiers ...
Existing association rule mining algorithms suffer from many problems when mining massive transactional datasets. Some of these major problems are: (1) the repetitive I/O disk sca...
In design, multiple disparate goals must be addressed simultaneously. It is the thesis of this work that problems in two-dimensional layout design can be solved by collaboration a...
This paper proposes a new planning architecture for agents operating in uncertain and dynamic environments. Decisiontheoretic planning has been recognized as a useful tool for rea...
