An Overview of Alternative Rule Evaluation Criteria and Their Use in Separate-and-Conquer Classifiers Berzal Galiano, Fernando Cubero Talavera, Juan Carlos Marín Ruiz, Nicolás Polo, José Luis Inteligencia artificial Artificial intelligence Separate-and-conquer classifiers strongly depend on the criteria used to choose which rules will be included in the classification model. When association rules are employed to build such classifiers (as in ART [3]), rule evaluation can be performed attending to different criteria (other than the traditional confidence measure used in association rule mining). In this paper, we analyze the desirable properties of such alternative criteria and their effect in building rule-based classifiers using a separate-and-conquer strategy. 2022-11-10T12:28:45Z 2022-11-10T12:28:45Z 2006 conference output Published version: Berzal, F...
