A novel approach to fully representing the diversity in conditional dependencies for learning Bayesian network classifier

Abstract

Bayesian network classifiers (BNCs) have proved their effectiveness and efficiency in the supervised learning framework. Numerous variations of conditional independence assumption have been proposed to address the issue of NP-hard structure learning of BNC. However, researchers focus on identifying conditional dependence rather than conditional independence, and information-theoretic criteria cannot identify the diversity in conditional (in)dependencies for different instances. In this paper, the maximum correlation criterion and minimum dependence criterion are introduced to sort attributes and identify conditional independencies, respectively. The heuristic search strategy is applied to find possible global solution for achieving the trade-off between significant dependency relationships and independence assumption. Our extensive experimental evaluation on widely used benchmark data sets reveals that the proposed algorithm achieves competitive classification performance compared to state-of-the-art single model learners (e.g., TAN, KDB, KNN and SVM) and ensemble learners (e.g., ATAN and AODE).

Building Construction Design Based on Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

“…Combining the characteristics of construction engineering with order strategy, Duan built an inventory management model of building materials and realized the optimal value of inventory cost of building materials by solving a genetic algorithm [9]. Based on the meta-network analysis, Wang proposed an effective way to express the complex interaction of various factors involved in a project and extended the analysis scope to multiple dimensions to form a comprehensive project network covering the relationship between various influencing factors [10].…”

Interaction of Secure Cloud Network and Crowd Computing for Smart City Data Obfuscation

“…It uses Internet of Things (IoT) devices such as sensors, meters, among others, to collect and analyze data. The data in smart cities helps to improve infrastructures, public utilities, and services and to manage the daily task of enhancing public safety and environmental issues [ 17 ]. Here, data are collected from multiple sources.…”

“…The smart city is based on the development of technology in the environment and society to make life easier and more comfortable, i.e., smart classrooms, smart vehicles, smart bus stations, and many others. The data collection is through devices, sensors, cameras, and so on with the help of the Internet [ 17 ]. Sensors are installed in indoor and outdoor cities, which provide the data by observing the signals that support and measure the various types of data from multiple places that can be converted to give understandable data.…”

“…Mathematically speaking, both keys are related. The way the keys are related varies depending on the algorithm [ 17 ]. Asymmetric encryption has benefits when storing data since it uses a public key that is widely available to encrypt data and a private key that is linked to a public key to decode data using the appropriate algorithms.…”

“…Hence the best join technique cannot be chosen. The hit rate during SQL execution is calculated to select a joining technique [ 17 ]. The SELECT-APSL data retrieval method obtains the obfuscated hybrid data from a big-data database in a cloud server.…”
