Analyzing Discretizations of Continuous Attributes Given a Monotonic Discrimination Function

This article addresses the problem of analyzing existing discretizations of continuous attributes with regard to their redundancy and minimality properties by providing a test for redundancy and enabling for a controlled reduction of the discretization's size within specified limits.

Abstract

This article addresses the problem of analyzing existing discretizations of continuous attributes with regard to their redundancy and minimality properties. The research was inspired by the increasing number of heuristic algorithms created for genera
