Coupled Attribute Similarity Learning on Categorical Data for Multi-Label Classification

In this paper a novel coupled attribute similarity learning method is proposed with the basis on the multi-label categorical data（CASonMLCD）.The CASonMLCD method not only computes the correlations between different attributes and multi-label sets using information gain,which can be regarded as the important degree of each attribute in the attribute learning method,but also further analyzes the intra-coupled and inter-coupled interactions between an attribute value pair for different attributes and multiple labels.The paper compared the CASonMLCD method with the OF distance and Jaccard similarity,which is based on the MLKNN algorithm according to 5common evaluation criteria.The experiment results demonstrated that the CASonMLCD method can mine the similarity relationship more accurately and comprehensively,it can obtain better performance than compared methods.

A Graph Drawing Algorithm for Visualizing Multivariate Categorical Data

In this paper, a new approach for visualizing multivariate categorical data is presented. The approach uses a graph to represent multivariate categorical data and draws the graph in such a way that we can identify patterns, trends and relationship within the data. A mathematical model for the graph layout problem is deduced and a spectral graph drawing algorithm for visualizing multivariate categorical data is proposed. The experiments show that the drawings by the algorithm well capture the structures of multivariate categorical data and the computing speed is fast.

Analysis of Extension Categorical Data Mining Process for the Extension Interior Designing

On the basis of extension architectonics,this paper researches the process of extension categorical data mining for extension interior design. In accordance with the theory of extension data mining,the extension categorical data mining for the extension interior design can be divided into data preparation,the operation of mining and knowledge application. The paper expatiates the main content and cohesive relations of each link,and emphatically discusses extension acquisition,analysis extension,categorical mining extension,knowledge application extension and other several core nodes that are related with data. Through the knowledge fusion of extension architectonics and data mining,the paper discusses the process of knowledge requirements with multiple classification under different mining targets. The purpose of this paper is to explore a whole categorical data mining process of interior design from extension design data to the design of knowledge discovery and extension application.

Validating Intrinsic Factors Informing E-Commerce: Categorical Data Analysis Demo

Statistics is a powerful tool for data measurement. Statistical techniques properly planned and executed give meaning to meaningless data. The difficulty some practitioners encounter hinges on the fact that though there are numerous statistical methods available for use in analysis, the extent of their understanding and ease of using these tools for analysis is limited. This study has twofold purpose: firstly, literature on categorical data commonly used in research was reviewed; next, we reported the results of a survey we designed and executed. Categorical data was collected via questionnaire and analyzed to serve as a backbone of the robustness of categorical data. Several conjectures about the independence of the socio-economic variables and e-commence were tested. Some of the factors influencing patronage of e-commerce were identified. It is clear from the literature that as one’s academic qualification improves, there is an associated improvement in their preference for e-commerce, but the results revealed otherwise. Size of family was found to influence e-commerce. Both income and social status positively affected patronage in e-commerce. Gender also appeared to affect patronage in e-commerce. 62.3% of staff had patronized e-commerce. This shows that e-commerce patronage was gradually increasing. It is therefore our considered view that policy documents regulating and monitoring the use of e-commerce be developed to increase e-commerce participation across the globe. It is also recommended that the bottlenecks which obstruct patronage in e-commence be addressed so that a lot more staff will develop a positive attitude towards e-commerce.

Image-guided color mapping for categorical data visualization

Appropriate color mapping for categorical data visualization can significantly facilitate the discovery of underlying data patterns and effectively bring out visual aesthetics.Some systems suggest pre-defined palettes for this task.However,a predefined color mapping is not always optimal,failing to consider users’needs for customization.Given an input cate-gorical data visualization and a reference image,we present an effective method to automatically generate a coloring that resembles the reference while allowing classes to be easily distinguished.We extract a color palette with high perceptual distance between the colors by sampling dominant and discriminable colors from the image’s color space.These colors are assigned to given classes by solving an integer quadratic program to optimize point distinctness of the given chart while preserving the color spatial relations in the source image.We show results on various coloring tasks,with a diverse set of new coloring appearances for the input data.We also compare our approach to state-of-the-art palettes in a controlled user study,which shows that our method achieves comparable performance in class discrimination,while being more similar to the source image.User feedback after using our system verifies its efficiency in automatically generating desirable colorings that meet the user’s expectations when choosing a reference.
