Can FCA-based Recommender System Suggest a Proper Classifier?
The paper briefly introduces multiple classifier systems and describes a new
algorithm, which improves classification accuracy by means of recommendation of
a proper algorithm to an object classification. This recommendation is done
assuming that a classifier is likely to predict the label of the object
correctly if it has correctly classified its neighbors. The process of
assigning a classifier to each object is based on Formal Concept Analysis. We
explain the idea of the algorithm with a toy example and describe our first
experiments with real-world datasets.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure, 4 tables, ECAI 2014, workshop "What FCA can do

A review of associative classification mining
Associative classification mining is a promising approach in data mining that utilizes the
association rule discovery techniques to construct classification systems, also known as
associative classifiers. In the last few years, a number of associative classification algorithms
have been proposed, i.e. CPAR, CMAR, MCAR, MMAC and others. These algorithms
employ several different rule discovery, rule ranking, rule pruning, rule prediction and rule
evaluation methods. This paper focuses on surveying and comparing the state-of-the-art associative
classification techniques with regards to the above criteria. Finally, future directions in associative
classification, such as incremental learning and mining low-quality data sets, are also
highlighted in this paper
Automated 5-year Mortality Prediction using Deep Learning and Radiomics Features from Chest Computed Tomography
We propose new methods for the prediction of 5-year mortality in elderly
individuals using chest computed tomography (CT). The methods consist of a
classifier that performs this prediction using a set of features extracted from
the CT image and segmentation maps of multiple anatomic structures. We explore
two approaches: 1) a unified framework based on deep learning, where features
and classifier are automatically learned in a single optimisation process; and
2) a multi-stage framework based on the design and selection/extraction of
hand-crafted radiomics features, followed by the classifier learning process.
Experimental results, based on a dataset of 48 annotated chest CTs, show that
the deep learning model produces a mean 5-year mortality prediction accuracy of
68.5%, while radiomics produces a mean accuracy that varies between 56% to 66%
(depending on the feature selection/extraction method and classifier). The
successful development of the proposed models has the potential to make a
profound impact in preventive and personalised healthcare.Comment: 9 page
