Multilevel Weighted Support Vector Machine for Classification on Healthcare Data with Missing Values
This work is motivated by the needs of predictive analytics on healthcare
data as represented by Electronic Medical Records. Such data is invariably
problematic: noisy, with missing entries, with imbalance in classes of
interests, leading to serious bias in predictive modeling. Since standard data
mining methods often produce poor performance measures, we argue for
development of specialized techniques of data-preprocessing and classification.
In this paper, we propose a new method to simultaneously classify large
datasets and reduce the effects of missing values. It is based on a multilevel
framework of the cost-sensitive SVM and the expected maximization imputation
method for missing values, which relies on iterated regression analyses. We
compare classification results of multilevel SVM-based algorithms on public
benchmark datasets with imbalanced classes and missing values as well as real
data in health applications, and show that our multilevel SVM-based method
produces fast, and more accurate and robust classification results.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1503.0625
Financial Computational Intelligence
Artificial intelligence decision support system is always a popular topic in providing the human with an optimized decision recommendation when operating under uncertainty in complex environments. The particular focus of our discussion is to compare different methods of artificial intelligence decision support systems in the investment domain – the goal of investment decision-making is to select an optimal portfolio that satisfies the investor’s objective, or, in other words, to maximize the investment returns under the constraints given by investors. In this study we apply several artificial intelligence systems like Influence Diagram (a special type of Bayesian network), Decision Tree and Neural Network to get experimental comparison analysis to help users to intelligently select the best portfoliArtificial intelligence, neural network, decision tree, bayesian network
