Rule discovery or rule mining uses a set of IF-THEN rules to classify a class or category. Besides the classical approaches, many rule mining approaches use biologically-inspired algorithms such as evolutionary algorithms and swarm intelligence approaches. In this paper, a Particle Swarm Optimization based discrete implementation with a local search strategy (DPSO-LS) was devised. The local search strategy helps to overcome local optima in order to improve the solution quality. Our DPSO-LS uses the Pittsburgh approach whereby a rule base is used to represent a `particle'. This rule base is evolved over time as to find the best possible classification model. Experimental results reveal that DPSO-LS outperforms other classification methods in most cases based on rule size, TP rates, FP rates, and precision.","PeriodicalId":103091,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fourth World Congress on Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing (NaBIC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114916312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, a combination of spectral, spatial and radiometric resolution of space-borne sensors presents a selective and incomplete look of the geospatial feature/object under its view from the space. Recently, the nature inspired computational intelligence (CI) techniques have emerged as an efficient mechanism to handle diverse uncertainty characteristics. This paper proposes that the human-mind model based computational intelligence techniques, the artificial immune system based computational intelligence techniques; the swarm intelligence based computational intelligence techniques and the emerging geo-sciences based intelligent techniques can be considered as the four pillars of nature inspired CI techniques and hence redefines and extends the taxonomy of nature inspired CI. Researchers have shown keen interest on the applications of natural computing in divergent domains. Scanty references are available on the applications of nature inspired computing in the area of remote sensing. We hence also propose the taxonomy of the most recent nature inspired CI techniques that have been adapted till date for geo-spatial feature extraction and analyze their performances. We also construct a technology timeline of these recent nature inspired CI techniques.","PeriodicalId":103091,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fourth World Congress on Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing (NaBIC)","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125468945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, PPI is formulated as an optimization problem. The binding energy and mismatch in phylogenetic profiles of two bound proteins are used as a scoring function for the solutions. Results are demonstrated for three different networks both numerically and pictorially.

A well-known technique is data mining and pattern recognition, which are disciplines dependent of artificial intelligence that from some data, allow the acquisition of knowledge and in particular, within data mining, a great application in the field of bioinformatics has been found. What is more, the big and diverse expansion of the amount of data produced by problems related to biological behavior has generated the necessity of constructing precise algorithms of prediction and classification. The precision of classification algorithms can be affected by diverse factors, some of them considered generics in any automatic learning algorithm and, therefore, applicable to the distinct research areas. These factors are the ones that have received attention in the field of automatic learning and pattern recognition, where different clustering algorithms are observed, in particular the automatic classification or better known as classification by partitions. In this scenery, is important to discover an analogy about the way that some living beings form groups to survive in their environment finding an optimal sequence or structure or, that group their objects or belongings, against a classification by partitions algorithm. The partitioning is an NP-hard problem, thus the incorporation of approximated methods is necessary. The heuristic that we expose here is Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) focusing in the way that this heuristic does the search of neighbor conditions by means of neighborhoods to get a satisfactory solution, just like some living beings usually do it when they try to adapt to a neighborhood close to theirs or to the current space. In this work, we focus on describing in a bioinspired way, a technique of data mining known as partitional grouping with the inclusion of VNS with the purpose of finding approximated solutions for a clustering problem.","PeriodicalId":103091,"journal":{"name":"2012 Fourth World Congress on Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing (NaBIC)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124286624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study identifies low-level perturbative heuristics for this domain as well as a representation, initial population generation method, evaluation and selection methods, and genetic operator for the evolutionary algorithm hyper-heuristic.

The high pressure regions denoting surface edges have been segmented out via multilevel thresholding. These high pressure regions hereby obtained were unique to different object classes. Some regional descriptors have been used to uniquely describe the high pressure regions. These regional descriptors have been employed as the features needed for the classification purpose. Linear Support Vector Machine (LSVM) classifier is used for object shape classification. In noise free environment the classifier gives an average accuracy of 92.6%. Some statistical tests have been performed to prove the efficacy of the classification process.
