In this paper we introduce a method for the empirical reconstruction of a fuzzy model of measurements on the basis of testing measurements using a possibility-theoretical approach. the method of measurement reduction is developed for solving a problem of an estimation of parameters of a fuzzy system. It is shown that such problems are reduced to minimax problems. If the model is unknown it can be restored from testing experiments and can be applied for handling the problems of the type of forecasting the behavior of a system.

We explore the problem of learning and predicting popularity of articles from online news media. the only available information we exploit is the textual content of the articles and the information whether they became popular by users clicking on them or not. First we show that this problem cannot be solved satisfactorily in a naive way by modelling it as a binary classification problem. Next, we cast this problem as a ranking task of pairs of popular and non-popular articles and show that this approach can reach accuracy of up to 76%. Finally we show that prediction performance can improve if more content-based features are used. For all experiments, Support Vector machines approaches are used.

this paper presents three disease diagnosis systems using patternrecognition based on genetic algorithm and neural networks. All systems deal with feature selection and classification. Genetic algorithm chooses subsets of features for the input of the classifier (neural network) and the accuracy of the classifier determine the percentage of effectiveness of each subsets of features. the classifiers using in this paper are general regression neural network (GRNN), radial basis function (RBF) and radial basis network exact fit (RBEF). We use breast cancer and hepatitis disease datasets taken from UCI machinelearningdatabase as medical dataset. the system performances are estimated by classification accuracy and they are compared with similar methods without feature selection.

Latent print examinations involve a process by which a latent print, often recovered from a crime scene, is compared against a known standard or sets of standard prints. Despite advances in automatic fingerprint recognition, latent prints are still examined by human expert primarily due to the poor image quality of latent prints. the aim of the present study is to better understand the perceptual and cognitive processes of fingerprint practices as implicit expertise. Our approach is to collect fine-grained gaze data from fingerprint experts when they conduct a matching task between two prints. We then rely on machinelearning techniques to discover meaningful patterns from their eye movement data. As the first steps in this project, we compare gaze patterns from experts withthose obtained from novices. Our results show that experts and novices generate similar overall gaze patterns. However, a deeper data analysis using machine translation reveals that experts are able to identify more corresponding areas between two prints within a short period of time.

A method for simultaneous non-Gaussian data clustering, feature selection and outliers rejection is proposed in this paper. the proposed approach is based on finite generalized Dirichlet mixture models learned within a framework including expectation-maximization updates for model parameters estimation and minimum message length criterion for model selection. through a challenging application involving texture images discrimination, it is demonstrated that the developed procedure performs effectively in avoiding outliers and selecting relevant features.

Electronic traces of activity have the potential to be an invaluable source to understand the strategies followed by groups of learners working collaboratively around a tabletop. However, in tabletop and other co-located learning settings, high amounts of unconstrained actions can be performed by different students simultaneously. this paper introduces a datamining approach that exploits the log traces of a problem-solving tabletop application to extract patterns of activity in order to shed light on the strategies followed by groups of learners. the objective of the datamining task is to discover which frequent sequences of actions differentiate high achieving from low achieving groups. An important challenge is to interpret the raw log traces, taking the user identification into account, and pre-process this data to make it suitable for mining and discovering meaningful patterns of interaction. We explore two methods for mining sequential patterns. We compare these two methods by evaluating the information that they each discover about the strategies followed by the high and low achieving groups. Our key contributions include the design of an approach to find frequent sequential patterns from multiuser co-located settings, the evaluation of the two methods, and the analysis of the results obtained from the sequential patternmining.

the aim of this talk is to explain a pioneering exploratory research endeavour that attempts to merge two completely different fields in Computer Science so as to yield very fascinating results. these are the well-established fields of Neural Networks (NNs) and Adaptive data Structures (ADS) respectively. the field of NNs deals withthe training and learning capabilities of a large number of neurons, each possessing minimal computational properties. On the other hand, the field of ADS concerns designing, implementing and analyzing data structures which adaptively change with time so as to optimize some access criteria. In this talk, we shall demonstrate how these fields can be merged, so that the neural elements are themselves linked together using a data structure. this structure can be a singly-linked or doubly-linked list, or even a Binary Search Tree (BST). While the results themselves are quite generic, in particular, we shall, as a prima facie case, present the results in which a Self-Organizing Map (SOM) with an underlying BST structure can be adaptively re-structured using conditional rotations. these rotations on the nodes of the tree are local and are performed in constant time, guaranteeing a decrease in the Weighted Path Length of the entire tree. As a result, the algorithm, referred to as the Tree-based Topology-Oriented SOM with Conditional Rotations (TTO-CONROT), converges in such a manner that the neurons are ultimately placed in the input space so as to represent its stochastic distribution. Besides, the neighborhood properties of the neurons suit the best BST that represents the data.
