Selecting right attribute reduction method is more important. This paper studies the reduction effects of principal components analysis (PCA) and system reconstruction analysis (SRA) on coronary heart disease data. The data set contains 1723 records, and 71 attributes in each record. PCA and SRA are used to reduce attributes number (less than 71 ) in the data set. And then decision tree algorithms, C4.5, classification and regression tree ( CART), and chi-square automatic interaction detector ( CHAID), are adopted to analyze the raw data and attribute reduced data. The parameters of decision tree algorithms, including internal node number, maximum tree depth, leaves number, and correction rate are analyzed. The result indicates that, PCA and SRA data can complete attribute reduction work,and the decision-making rate on the reduced data is quicker than that on the raw data; the reduction effect of PCA is better than that of SRA, while the attribute assertion of SRA is better than that of PCA. PCA and SRA methods exhibit goodperformance in selecting and reducing attributes.展开更多

The establishment of tribal councils provides a communicative forum for tribal leaders, village, and the association of community development to make decisions of common tribal affairs. When disasters happen, the internal tribal response strategies and external assistance mechanisms might cooperate through either traditional or modern administrative systems. The research focused on how these organizations, while in interim housing, influenced the reconstruction and rehabilitation after disasters. The research＇s findings suggested that tribal councils, a pre-existing mechanism, seemed to be an appropriate forum for negotiation and decision-making for tribal affairs.展开更多
