    Tree Ensembles on the induced discrete space
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-05) Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    Decision trees are widely used predictive models in machine learning. Recently, K-tree is proposed, where the original discrete feature space is expanded by generating all orderings of values of k discrete attributes and these orderings are used as the new attributes in decision tree induction. Although K-tree performs significantly better than the proper one, their exponential time complexity can prohibit their use. In this brief, we propose K-forest, an extension of random forest, where a subset of features is selected randomly from the induced discrete space. Simulation results on 17 data sets show that the novel ensemble classifier has significantly lower error rate compared with the random forest based on the original feature space.

    Mapping classifiers and datasets
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-04) Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    Given the posterior probability estimates of 14 classifiers on 38 datasets, we plot two-dimensional maps of classifiers and datasets using principal component analysis (PCA) and Isomap. The similarity between classifiers indicate correlation (or diversity) between them and can be used in deciding whether to include both in an ensemble. Similarly, datasets which are too similar need not both be used in a general comparison experiment. The results show that (i) most of the datasets (approximately two third) we used are similar to each other, (ii) multilayer perceptrons and k-nearest neighbor variants are more similar to each other than support vector machine and decision tree variants. (iii) the number of classes and the sample size has an effect on similarity.
