Bloom fitted the data % more closely than did ACT. % % 4. Relevant Information: % This database contains 5 numeric-valued attributes. Only a subset of % 3 are used during testing (the latter 3). Furthermore, only 2 of the % 3 concepts are "used" during testing (i.e., those with the prototypes % 000 and 111). I've mapped all values to their zero-indexing equivalents. % % Some instances could be placed in either category 0 or 1. I've followed % the authors' suggestion, placing them in each category with equal % probability. % % I've replaced the actual values of the attributes (i.e., hobby has values % chess, sports and stamps) with numeric values. I think this is how % the authors' did this when testing the categorization models described % in the paper. I find this unfair. While the subjects were able to bring % background knowledge to bear on the attribute values and their % relationships, the algorithms were provided with no such knowledge. I'm % uncertain whether the 2 distractor attributes (name and hobby) are % presented to the authors' algorithms during testing. However, it is clear % that only the age, educational status, and marital status attributes are % given during the human subjects' transfer tests. % % 5. Number of Instances: 132 training instances, 28 test instances % % 6. Number of Attributes: 5 plus the class membership attribute. 3 concepts. % % 7. Attribute Information: % -- 1. name: distinct for each instance and represented numerically % -- 2. hobby: nominal values ranging between 1 and 3 % -- 3. age: nominal values ranging between 1 and 4 % -- 4. educational level: nominal values ranging between 1 and 4 % -- 5. marital status: nominal values ranging between 1 and 4 % -- 6. class: nominal value between 1 and 3 % % 9. Missing Attribute Values: none % % 10. Class Distribution: see below % % 11. Detailed description of the experiment: % 1. 3 categories (1, 2, and neither -- which I call 3) % -- some of the instances could be classified in either class 1 or 2, and % they have been evenly distributed between the two classes % 2. 5 Attributes % -- A. name (a randomly-generated number between 1 and 132) % -- B. hobby (a randomly-generated number between 1 and 3) % -- C. age (a number between 1 and 4) % -- D. education level (a number between 1 and 4) % -- E. marital status (a number between 1 and 4) % 3. Classification: % -- only attributes C-E are diagnostic; values for A and B are ignored % -- Class Neither: if a 4 occurs for any attribute C-E % -- Class 1: Otherwise, if (# of 1's)>(# of 2's) for attributes C-E % -- Class 2: Otherwise, if (# of 2's)>(# of 1's) for attributes C-E % -- Either 1 or 2: Otherwise, if (# of 2's)=(# of 1's) for attributes C-E % 4. Prototypes: % -- Class 1: 111 % -- Class 2: 222 % -- Class Either: 333 % -- Class Neither: 444 % 5. Number of training instances: 132 % -- Each instance presented 0, 1, or 10 times % -- None of the prototypes seen during training % -- 3 instances from each of categories 1, 2, and either are repeated % 10 times each % -- 3 additional instances from the Either category are shown during % learning % 5. Number of test instances: 28 % -- All 9 class 1 % -- All 9 class 2 % -- All 6 class Either % -- All 4 prototypes % -------------------- % -- 28 total % % Observations of interest: % 1. Relative classification confidence of % -- prototypes for classes 1 and 2 (2 instances) % (Anderson calls these Class 1 instances) % -- instances of class 1 with frequency 10 during training and % instances of class 2 with frequency 10 during training that % are 1 value away from their respective prototypes (6 instances) % (Anderson calls these Class 2 instances) % -- instances of class 1 with frequency 1 during training and % instances of class 2 with frequency 1 during training that % are 1 value away from their respective prototypes (6 instances) % (Anderson calls these Class 3 instances) % -- instances of class 1 with frequency 1 during training and % instances of class 2 with frequency 1 during training that % are 2 values away from their respective prototypes (6 instances) % (Anderson calls these Class 4 instances) % 2. Relative classification recognition of them also % % Some Expected results: % Both frequency and distance from prototype will effect the classification % accuracy of instances. Greater the frequency, higher the classification % confidence. Closer to prototype, higher the classification confidence. % % Information about the dataset % CLASSTYPE: nominal % CLASSINDEX: last % @relation hayes-roth @attribute 'hobby' INTEGER @attribute 'age' INTEGER @attribute 'educational_level' INTEGER @attribute 'marital_status' INTEGER @attribute 'class' {1,2,3,4} @data 2,1,1,2,1 2,1,3,2,2 3,1,4,1,3 2,4,2,2,3 1,1,3,4,3 1,1,3,2,2 3,1,3,2,2 3,4,2,4,3 2,2,1,1,1 3,2,1,1,1 1,2,1,1,1 2,2,3,4,3 1,1,2,1,1 2,1,2,2,2 2,4,1,4,3 1,1,3,3,1 3,2,1,2,2 1,2,1,1,1 3,3,2,1,1 3,1,3,2,1 1,2,2,1,2 3,2,1,3,1 2,1,2,1,1 3,2,1,3,1 2,3,2,1,1 3,2,2,1,2 3,2,1,3,2 2,1,2,2,2 1,1,3,2,1 3,2,1,1,1 1,4,1,1,3 2,2,1,3,1 1,2,1,3,2 1,1,1,2,1 2,4,3,1,3 3,1,2,2,2 1,1,2,2,2 3,2,2,1,2 1,2,1,2,2 3,4,3,2,3 2,2,2,1,2 2,2,1,2,2 3,2,1,3,2 3,2,1,1,1 3,1,2,1,1 1,2,1,3,2 2,1,1,2,1 1,1,1,2,1 1,2,2,3,2 3,3,1,1,1 3,3,3,1,1 3,2,1,2,2 3,2,1,2,2 3,1,2,1,1 1,1,1,2,1 2,1,3,2,1 2,2,2,1,2 2,1,2,1,1 2,2,1,3,1 2,1,2,2,2 1,2,4,2,3 2,2,1,2,2 1,1,2,4,3 1,3,2,1,1 2,4,4,2,3 2,3,2,1,1 3,1,2,2,2 1,1,2,2,2 1,3,2,4,3 1,1,2,2,2 3,1,4,2,3 2,1,3,2,2 1,1,3,2,2 3,1,3,2,1 1,2,4,4,3 1,4,2,1,3 2,1,2,1,1 3,4,1,2,3 2,2,1,1,1 1,1,2,1,1 2,2,4,3,3 3,1,2,2,2 1,1,3,2,1 1,2,1,3,1 1,4,4,1,3 3,3,3,2,2 2,2,1,3,2 3,3,2,1,2 1,1,1,3,1 2,2,1,2,2 2,2,2,1,2 2,3,2,3,2 1,3,2,1,2 2,2,1,2,2 1,1,1,2,1 3,2,2,1,2 3,2,1,1,1 1,1,2,1,1 3,1,4,4,3 3,3,2,1,2 2,3,2,1,2 2,1,3,1,1 1,2,1,2,2 3,1,1,2,1 2,2,4,1,3 1,2,2,1,2 2,3,2,1,2 2,2,1,4,3 1,4,2,3,3 2,2,1,1,1 1,2,1,1,1 2,2,3,2,2 1,3,2,1,1 3,1,2,1,1 3,1,1,2,1 3,3,1,4,3 2,3,4,1,3 1,2,3,3,2 3,3,2,2,2 3,3,4,2,3 1,2,2,1,2 2,1,1,4,3 3,1,2,2,2 3,2,2,4,3 2,3,1,3,1 2,1,1,2,1 3,4,1,3,3 1,1,4,3,3 2,1,2,1,1 1,2,1,2,2 1,2,2,1,2 3,1,1,2,1
