Knowledge discovery in data using formal concept analysis and random projections

Cherukuri Aswani Kumar (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper our objective is to propose a random projections based formal concept analysis for knowledge discovery in data. We demonstrate the implementation of the proposed method on two real world healthcare datasets. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a mathematical framework that offers a conceptual knowledge representation through hierarchical conceptual structures called concept lattices. However, during the design of a concept lattice, complexity plays a major role.

Solving the Task Assignment Problem with a Variable Neighborhood Search

Kratica, Jozef, Savić, Aleksandar, Filipović, Vladimir, Milanović, Marija (2010)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

In this paper a variable neighborhood search (VNS) approach for the task assignment problem (TAP) is considered. An appropriate neighborhood scheme along with a shaking operator and local search procedure are constructed specifically for this problem. The computational results are presented for the instances from the literature, and compared to optimal solutions obtained by the CPLEX solver and heuristic solutions generated by the genetic algorithm. It can be seen that the proposed...

A Prototype of an Extension to the UDDI Registry Allowing Pubilcation and Search Based on Subjective Evaluations

Mintchev, Alexander (2007)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

The paper has been presented at the International Conference Pioneers of Bulgarian Mathematics, Dedicated to Nikola Obreshko and Lubomir Tschakalo , So a, July, 2006. The current paper introduces the usage of subjective evaluations by others as a tool that can support consumers' decisions. It summarizes the features of the main UDDI registry providers and presents an extension to any UDDI registry allowing users of the registry to publish subjective evaluations for any artifact...

Genetic Algorithm Approach for Solving the Task Assignment Problem

Savić, Aleksandar, Tošić, Dušan, Marić, Miroslav, Kratica, Jozef (2008)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

This research was partially supported by the Serbian Ministry of Science and Ecology under project 144007. The authors are grateful to Ivana Ljubić for help in testing and to Vladimir Filipović for useful suggestions and comments. In this paper a genetic algorithm (GA) for the task assignment problem (TAP) is considered.An integer representation with standard genetic operators is used. Computational results are presented for instances from the literature, and compared to...

Weighting quantitative and qualitative variables in clustering methods.

Karina Gibert, Ulises Cortés (1997)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Description of individuals in ill-structured domains produces messy data matrices. In this context, automated classification requires the management of those kind of matrices. One of the features involved in clustering is the evaluation of distances between individuals. Then, a special function to calculate distances between individuals partially simultaneously described by qualitative and quantitative variables is required. In this paper properties and details of the metrics...
