Identification of coupling parameters between shear strength behaviour of compacted soils and chemical's effects with an evolutionary-based data mining technique. Computers and Geotechnics, 48, 107-116. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compgeo.2012.10.005

When subjected to a very high-pH, most of the soil minerals undergo physico-chemical transformation. This could induce strong modifications of the shear strength behaviour of the soil. This issue is of high interest in the framework of the design of...

Several authors have studied the problem of inducing decision trees that aim to minimize costs of misclassification and take account of costs of tests. The approaches adopted vary from modifying the information theoretic attribute selection measure u... Read More about A multi-armed bandit approach to cost-sensitive decision tree learning.

Preface to the workshop on cost sensitive data mining (2012)
Book Chapter

Much of the early work on data mining concentrated on developing algorithms that focused on classification accuracy. A more challenging and practical problem is to devise algorithms that learn rules or associations that optimize income and take bette...
