TSD based framework for mining the induction rules

摘要

Sex determination mainly encompasses two aspects: genotypic sex determination (CSD) and temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD). Genotypic sex determination performs its task by observing the presence of sex chromosomes. In many reptiles sex determination is greatly influenced by the environmental conditions such as temperature of the nest, weight and size of eggs. A nature inspired algorithm which mimics the mechanism of temperature dependent sex determination (TSD) has been introduced for mining the classification rules from datasets. A comparison of proposed TSD algorithm with other well known rule induction algorithms like PRISM, C4.S, 1-R. CN2, and NN has been evaluated on some bench mark datasets.
