TL;DR: It has been found that the classification accuracies vary between 87% and 54% respectively and it may be emphasized that rough set reasons out all the possibilities and the decision could be as close as human diagnosis.
Abstract: Arrhythmia is caused due to the changes in the normal rhythm of heart with great risk of fatality if sustained over long periods of time. Many machine-learning algorithms have been developed for a fast diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmia. Also, the decision accuracies vary from method to method with Support Vector Machines (SVM) giving the highest. However, SVM cannot deal with the uncertainties in the process of diagnosis. Therefore, the authors have considered the Rough Set method for this classification. Analysis has been done with and without reducing the number of features. It has been found that the classification accuracies vary between 87% and 54% respectively. It may be emphasized that rough set reasons out all the possibilities and the decision could be as close as human diagnosis. The experimental results are presented.

TL;DR: Issues such as solving SVM optimization problems theoretical convergence multiclass classification probability estimates and parameter selection are discussed in detail.
Abstract: LIBSVM is a library for Support Vector Machines (SVMs). We have been actively developing this package since the year 2000. The goal is to help users to easily apply SVM to their applications. LIBSVM has gained wide popularity in machine learning and many other areas. In this article, we present all implementation details of LIBSVM. Issues such as solving SVM optimization problems theoretical convergence multiclass classification probability estimates and parameter selection are discussed in detail.

TL;DR: This approach seems to be of fundamental importance to artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive sciences, especially in the areas of machine learning, knowledge acquisition, decision analysis, knowledge discovery from databases, expert systems, decision support systems, inductive reasoning, and pattern recognition.
Abstract: Rough set theory, introduced by Zdzislaw Pawlak in the early 1980s [11, 12], is a new mathematical tool to deal with vagueness and uncertainty. This approach seems to be of fundamental importance to artificial intelligence (AI) and cognitive sciences, especially in the areas of machine learning, knowledge acquisition, decision analysis, knowledge discovery from databases, expert systems, decision support systems, inductive reasoning, and pattern recognition.

TL;DR: A method for feature subset selection using cross-validation that is applicable to any induction algorithm is described, and experiments conducted with ID3 and C4.5 on artificial and real datasets are discussed.
Abstract: We address the problem of finding a subset of features that allows a supervised induction algorithm to induce small high-accuracy concepts. We examine notions of relevance and irrelevance, and show that the definitions used in the machine learning literature do not adequately partition the features into useful categories of relevance. We present definitions for irrelevance and for two degrees of relevance. These definitions improve our understanding of the behavior of previous subset selection algorithms, and help define the subset of features that should be sought. The features selected should depend not only on the features and the target concept, but also on the induction algorithm. We describe a method for feature subset selection using cross-validation that is applicable to any induction algorithm, and discuss experiments conducted with ID3 and C4.5 on artificial and real datasets.
