The task of classification permeates all walks of life, from business and economics to science and public policy. In this context, nonlinear techniques from artificial intelligence have often proven to be more effective than the methods of classical statistics. The objective of knowledge discovery and data mining is to support decision making through the effective use of information. The automated approach to knowledge discovery is especially useful when dealing with large data sets or complex relationships. For many applications, automated software may find subtle patterns which escape the notice of manual analysis, or whose complexity exceeds the cognitive capabilities of humans. This paper explores the utility of a collaborative learning approach involving integrated models in the preprocessing and postprocessing stages. For instance, a genetic algorithm effects feature-weight optimization in a preprocessing module. Moreover, an inductive tree, artificial neural network (ANN), and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) techniques serve as postprocessing modules. More specifically, the postprocessors act as second0order classifiers which determine the best first-order classifier on a case-by-case basis. In addition to the second-order models, a voting scheme is investigated as a simple, but efficient, postprocessing model. The first-order models consist of statistical and machine learning models such as logistic regression (logit), multivariate discriminant analysis (MDA), ANN, and kNN. The genetic algorithm, inductive decision tree, and voting scheme act as kernel modules for collaborative learning. These ideas are explored against the background of a practical application relating to financial fraud management which exemplifies a binary classification problem.

Background: Lung cancer remains one of the most common cancers in the world, both in terms of new cases (about 13% of total per year) and deaths (nearly one cancer death in five), because of the high case fatality. Errors in lung cancer type or malignant growth determination lead to degraded treatment efficacy, because anticancer strategy depends on tumor morphology. Materials and Methods: We have made an attempt to evaluate effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in the task of lung cancer classification based on gene expression levels. We processed four publicly available data sets. The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute data set contains 203 samples and the task was to classify four cancer types and sound tissue samples. With the University of Michigan data set of 96 samples, the task was to execute a binary classification of adenocarcinoma and non-neoplastic tissues. The University of Toronto data set contains 39 samples and the task was to detect recurrence, while with the Brigham and Women's Hospital data set of 181 samples it was to make a binary classification of malignant pleural mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma. We used the k-nearest neighbor algorithm (k=1, k=5, k=10), naive Bayes classifier with assumption of both a normal distribution of attributes and a distribution through histograms, support vector machine and C4.5 decision tree. Effectiveness of machine learning algorithms was evaluated with the Matthews correlation coefficient. Results: The support vector machine method showed best results among data sets from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women's Hospital. All algorithms with the exception of the C4.5 decision tree showed maximum potential effectiveness in the University of Michigan data set. However, the C4.5 decision tree showed best results for the University of Toronto data set. Conclusions: Machine learning algorithms can be used for lung cancer morphology classification and similar tasks based on gene expression level evaluation.

In recent years, imbalanced data is one of the most important and frequent issue for quality control in industrial field. As an example, defect rate has been drastically reduced thanks to highly developed technology and quality management, so that only few defective data can be obtained from production process. Therefore, quality classification should be performed under the condition that one class (defective dataset) is even smaller than the other class (good dataset). However, traditional multi-class classification methods are not appropriate to deal with such an imbalanced dataset, since they classify data from the difference between one class and the others that can hardly be found in imbalanced datasets. Thus, one-class classification that thoroughly learns patterns of target class is more suitable for imbalanced dataset since it only focuses on data in a target class. So far, several one-class classification methods such as one-class support vector machine, neural network and decision tree there have been suggested. One-class support vector machine and neural network can guarantee good classification rate, and decision tree can provide a set of rules that can be clearly interpreted. However, the classifiers obtained from the former two methods consist of complex mathematical functions and cannot be easily understood by users. In case of decision tree, the criterion for rule generation is ambiguous. Therefore, as an alternative, a new one-class classifier using hyper-rectangles was proposed, which performs precise classification compared to other methods and generates rules clearly understood by users as well. In this paper, we suggest an approach for improving the limitations of those previous one-class classification algorithms. Specifically, the suggested approach produces more improved one-class classifier using hyper-rectangles generated by using Gaussian function. The performance of the suggested algorithm is verified by a numerical experiment, which uses several datasets in UCI machine learning repository.

딥러닝(Deep learning) 기법은 패턴분석, 이미지분류 등 다양한 분야에서 높은 성과를 나타내고 있다. 특히, 주식시장 분석문제는 머신러닝 연구분야에서도 어려운 분야이므로 딥러닝이 많이 활용되는 영역이다. 본 연구에서는 패턴분석과 분류능력이 높은 딥러닝의 일종인 합성곱신경망(Convolutional Neural Network) 모델을 활용하여 주가방향 예측방법을 제안한다. 추가적으로 합성곱신경망 모델을 효율적으로 학습시키기 위한 속성선택(Feature Selection, FS)방법이 적용된다. 합성곱신경망 모델의 성과는 머신러닝 단일 분류기와 앙상블 분류기를 벤치마킹하여 객관적으로 검증된다. 본 연구에서 벤치마킹한 분류기는 로지스틱 회귀분석(Logistic Regression), 의사결정나무(Decision Tree), 인공신경망(Neural Network), 서포트 벡터머신(Support Vector Machine), 아다부스트(Adaboost), 배깅(Bagging), 랜덤포레스트(Random Forest)이다. 실증분석 결과, 속성선택을 적용한 합성곱신경망이 다른 벤치마킹 분류기보다 분류 성능이 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 합성곱신경망 모델과 속성선택방법을 적용한 예측방법이 기업의 재무자료에 내포된 가치를 보다 정교하게 분석할 수 있는 가능성이 있음을 실증적으로 확인할 수 있었다.

Text data distribution is often imbalanced. Imbalanced data is one of the challenges in text classification, as it leads to the loss of performance of classifiers. Many studies have been conducted so far in this regard. The proposed solutions are divided into several general categories, include sampling-based and algorithm-based methods. In recent studies, feature selection has also been considered as one of the solutions for the imbalance problem. In this paper, a novel one-sided feature selection known as probabilistic feature selection (PFS) was presented for imbalanced text classification. The PFS is a probabilistic method that is calculated using feature distribution. Compared to the similar methods, the PFS has more parameters. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the feature selection methods including Gini, MI, FAST and DFS were implemented. To assess the proposed method, the decision tree classifications such as C4.5 and Naive Bayes were used. The results of tests on Reuters-21875 and WebKB figures per F-measure suggested that the proposed feature selection has significantly improved the performance of the classifiers.

Many researchers are trying hard to minimize the incidence of cancers, mainly Gastric Cancer (GC). For GC, the five-year survival rate is generally 5-25%, but for Early Gastric Cancer (EGC), it is almost 90%. Predicting the onset of stomach cancer based on risk factors will allow for an early diagnosis and more effective treatment. Although there are several models for predicting stomach cancer, most of these models are based on unbalanced datasets, which favours the majority class. However, it is imperative to correctly identify cancer patients who are in the minority class. This research aims to apply three class-balancing approaches to the NHS dataset before developing supervised learning strategies: Oversampling (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique or SMOTE), Undersampling (SpreadSubsample), and Hybrid System (SMOTE + SpreadSubsample). This study uses Naive Bayes, Bayesian Network, Random Forest, and Decision Tree (C4.5) methods. We measured these classifiers' efficacy using their Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves, sensitivity, and specificity. The validation data was used to test several ways of balancing the classifiers. The final prediction model was built on the one that did the best overall.

Currently, the second most devastating form of cancer in people, particularly in women, is Breast Cancer (BC). In the healthcare industry, Machine Learning (ML) is commonly employed in fatal disease prediction. Due to breast cancer's favorable prognosis at an early stage, a model is created to utilize the Dataset on Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer (WDBC). Conversely, this model's overarching axiom is to compare the effectiveness of five well-known ML classifiers, including Logistic Regression (LR), Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Naive Bayes (NB) with the conventional method. To counterbalance the effect with conventional methods, the overarching tactic we utilized was hyperparameter tuning utilizing the grid search method, which improved accuracy, secondary precision, third recall, and finally the F1 score. In this study hyperparameter tuning model, the rate of accuracy increased from 94.15% to 98.83% whereas the accuracy of the conventional method increased from 93.56% to 97.08%. According to this investigation, KNN outperformed all other classifiers in terms of accuracy, achieving a score of 98.83%. In conclusion, our study shows that KNN works well with the hyper-tuning method. These analyses show that this study prediction approach is useful in prognosticating women with breast cancer with a viable performance and more accurate findings when compared to the conventional approach.

부부분불완전 데이터(Partially Missing Data) 또는 데이터의 속성 값이 표현되는 정도의 깊이가 서로 다른 데이터를 학습하는데 있어서 속성값계층구조(Attribute Value Taxonomy, AVT)를 기반으로 학습하면 기존의 학습 알고리즘을 통해 얻은 결과보다 정확하고 간결한 분류기를 얻을 수 있다는 사실이 밝혀졌다. 하지만 이러한 속성값계층구조는 처음부터 전문가 또는 데이터 도메인에 대한 지식을 가지고 있는 사람에 의해 만들어져 제공되어야 한다. 이러한 수작업을 통한 속성값계층구조를 생성하기 위해서는 많은 시간이 걸리며 생성과정에서 오류가 발생할 수 있다. 또한 데이터 도메인에 따라서 속성값계층구조를 제공할 전문가가 부재한 경우가 있다. 이러한 배경 아래 본 논문은 유전자 알고리즘을 통해 자동으로 근 최적의 속성값계층구조를 생성하는 알고리즘(GA-AVT-Learner)을 제안한다. 본 논문의 실험은 다양한 실제 데이터를 가지고 GA-AVT-Learner로 생성한 속성값계층구조를 다른 속성값계층구조와 비교하였다. 따라서 GA-AVT-Learner에 의해 생성된 속성값계층구조가 정확하고 간결한 분류기를 제공함을 보이고, 불완전데이터 처리에 있어서도 높은 효율을 보임을 실험적으로 증명하였다.

의료 진단 문제는 기정의된 특성치들로 표현되는 환자의 상태 데이터로부터 병의 유무를 판단하는 일종의 분류 문제로 간주할 수 있다. 본 연구는 혼용 유전자 알고리즘 기반의 분류방법을 도입함으로써 의료 진단 문제와 같은 다차원의 패턴 분류 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방안을 제안하고 있다. 일반적으로 분류 문제는 데이터 패턴에 존재하는 여러 클래스 간 구분경계를 생성하는 접근방법을 사용하는데, 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 일단의 영역 에이전트들을 도입하여 이들을 유전자 알고리즘 및 국소 적응조작을 혼용함으로써 데이터 패턴에 적응하도록 유도하고 있다. 일반적인 유전자 알고리즘의 진화단계를 거친 에이전트들에 적용되는 국소 적응조작은 영역 에이전트의 확장, 회피 및 재배치로 이루어지며, 각 에이전트의 적합도에 따라 이들 중 하나가 선택되어 해당 에이전트에 적용된다. 제안된 의료 진단용 분류 방법은 UCI 데이터베이스에 있는 잘 알려진 의료 데이터, 즉 간, 당뇨, 유방암 관련 진단 문제에 적용하여 검증하였다. 그 결과, 기존의 대표적인 분류기법인 최단거리이웃방법(the nearest neighbor), C4.5 알고리즘에 의한 의사 결정트리(decision tree) 및 신경망보다 우수한 진단 수행도를 나타내었다.
