Selecting among rules induced from a hurricane database
1995
Journal of Intelligent Information Systems

For example, we applied a commercial tool (IXL tin) to a 1,819 record tropical storm database, yielding 161 rules. ...
Applying the strategy to the induced rulebase yielded 10 "genuinely interesting" rules. ...
Phase 2: Identify technically Interesting rules Technically interesting (TI) rules are selected among PI rules according to a recursively defined principle based on the simplicity and statistical significance ...

This paper presents a new approach to the selection of prototypes for the nearest neighbor rule which aims at obtaining an optimal or close-to-optimal solution. ...
The results obtained suggest that the tabu search condensing algorithm offers a very good tradeoff between computational burden and the optimality of the prototypes selected. ...
Among these approaches, prototype selection (PS) techniques aim at obtaining a convenient set of prototypes from an initially given set in such a way that the plain 1-NN rule using these selected (and ...
