Rees matrix constructions for clustering of data

This paper continues the investigation of semigroup constructions motivated by applications in data mining. We give a complete description of the error-correcting capabilities of a large family of clusterers based on Rees matrix semigroups well known in semigroup theory. This result strengthens and complements previous formulas recently obtained in the literature. Examples show that our theorems do not generalize to other classes of semigroups

Optimal rees matrix constructions for analysis of data

Abstract We introduce a new construction involving Rees matrix semigroups and max-plus algebras that is very convenient for generating sets of centroids. We describe completely all optimal sets of centroids for all Rees matrix semigroups without any restrictions on the sandwich matrices. © 2013 Australian Mathematical Publishing Association Inc

A formula for multiple classifiers in data mining based on Brandt semigroups

A general approach to designing multiple classifiers represents them as a combination of several binary classifiers in order to enable correction of classification errors and increase reliability. This method is explained, for example, in Witten and Frank (Data Mining: Practical Machine Learning Tools and Techniques, 2005, Sect. 7.5). The aim of this paper is to investigate representations of this sort based on Brandt semigroups. We give a formula for the maximum number of errors of binary classifiers, which can be corrected by a multiple classifier of this type. Examples show that our formula does not carry over to larger classes of semigroups. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC
