Revised Boxplot Based Discretization as the Kernel of Automatic Interpretation of Classes Using Numerical Variables

  • Conference paper
Data Science and Classification

Abstract

In this paper the impact of improving Boxplot based discretization (BbD) on the methodology of Boxplot based induction rules (BbIR), oriented to the automatic generation of conceptual descriptions of classifications that can support later decision-making is presented.
