Abstract
The volume of
data being generated nowadays is increasing at
phenomenal rate. Extracting useful knowledge from such
data collections is an important and challenging issue.
A promising technique is the Rough set theory, a new
mathematical approach to data analysis based on
classification of objects of interest into similarity
classes, which are indiscernible with respect to some
features. This theory offers two fundamental concepts:
reduct and core. In this paper, Quick Reduct and the
proposed Improved Quick Reduct Algorithms are first
presented, followed by the c4.5 approach for rule
induction. Some experiment results are also given. The
redundant attributes are eliminated in order to
generate the effective reduct set (i.e., reduced set of
necessary attributes) or to construct the core of the
attribute set. This paper analyses the efficiency of
the proposed Improved Quickreduct Algorithm against the
standard Quick Reduct Algorithm. The experimental works
are carried out on medical data sets of UCI machine
learning repository and the Human Immuno deficiency
Virus(HIV)
data set.
Key
words: Rough set theory, Data
mining, Knowledge discovery, Feature selection,
Quickreduct, Improved Quickreduct.
