The PNC 2 Cluster Algorithm
Previous  Top  Next

The PNC2 Rule Inductions System is based on the PNC2 Cluster Algorithm. This chapter tries to give a sketch on how this algorithm works.
 
·The basic idea  
 
·Representation and distance measure  
How the clusters are represented and generalized and how distances between clusters and/or data tuples are measured  
 
·How regression problems are handled  
Explains how regression problems are handled by discretizing the output  
 
Note: All explanations in this chapter are quite short. If you want to know exactly how the PNC2 Cluster Algorithm works, you should refer to the corresponding part of my PhD thesis The PNC2 Cluster Algorithm.
