Far beyond the classical data models: symbolic data analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces symbolic data analysis, explaining how it extends the classical data models to take into account more complete and complex information. Several examples motivate the approach, before the modeling of variables assuming new types of realizations are formally presented. Some methods for the (multivariate) analysis of symbolic data are presented and discussed. This is however far from being exhaustive, given the present dynamic development of this new field of research. 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Statistical Analysis and Data Mining, 2011

Today, managers are seeking more efficient use of resources and manufacturing the products with the highest efficiencies. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a powerful tool for evaluating the efficiency of the decision making units. So far, in most studies, Data Envelopment Analysis has been applied to evaluate the efficiency of the separate organizations. However, in this study, DEA has been a...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Optimization of Fuzzy Decision Tree in Data Mining
Decision-tree algorithms provide one of the most popular methodologies for symbolic knowledge acquisition. The resulting knowledge, a symbolic decision tree along with a simple inference mechanism, has been praised for comprehensibility. The most comprehensible decision trees have been designed for perfect symbolic data. Classical crisp decision trees (DT) are widely applied to classification t...
متن کاملInductive learning from numerical and symbolic data: An integrated framework
Numerical induction from data is one of the statistical data analysis tasks, which uses a tabular model, with almost exclusively numerical features, as data representation formalism. The output representations are different: from functions to probability distributions, from surface equations to tables of indexes. One approach to extend the classical data analysis techniques to symbolic objects ...
متن کاملDiscriminant Analysis for ARMA Models Based on Divergency Criterion: A Frequency Domain Approach
The extension of classical analysis to time series data is the basic problem faced in many fields, such as engineering, economic and medicine. The main objective of discriminant time series analysis is to examine how far it is possible to distinguish between various groups. There are two situations to be considered in the linear time series models. Firstly when the main discriminatory informati...
