NDLI: Indexing rules in rule sets for fast classification

Content Provider	ACM Digital Library
Author	Lindgren, Tony
Abstract	Using sets of rules for classification of examples usually involves checking a number of conditions to see if they hold or not. If the rule set is large the time to make the classification can be lengthy. In this paper we propose an indexing algorithm to decrease the classification time when dealing with large rule sets. Unordered rule sets have a high time complexity when conducting classification; we hence conduct experiments comparing our novel indexing algorithm with the standard way of classifying ensembles of unordered rule sets. The result of the experiment shows decreased classification times for the novel method that are ranging from 0.6 to 0.8 of that of the standard approach averaged over all experimental datasets. This time gain is obtained while retaining an accuracy ranging from 0.84 to 0.99 with regard to the standard classification method. The index bit size used with the indexing algorithm influence both the classification accuracy and time needed for conducting the classification task.
