SF.applyDecTable: Apply for obtaining a new decision table

In RoughSets: Data Analysis Using Rough Set and Fuzzy Rough Set Theories

Apply for obtaining a new decision table

Description

It is used to apply a particular object/model for obtaining a new decision table. In other words, in order to use the function, the models, which are objects of missing value completion, feature selection, instance selection, or discretization, have been calculated previously .

Usage

SF.applyDecTable(decision.table, object, control = list())

Arguments

decision.table	a "DecisionTable" class representing a decision table. See SF.asDecisionTable.
object	a class resulting from feature selection (e.g., FS.reduct.computation), discretization (e.g., D.discretization.RST), instance selection functions (e.g., IS.FRIS.FRST), and missing value completion (e.g., MV.missingValueCompletion).
control	a list of other parameters which are indx.reduct representing an index of the chosen decision reduct. It is only considered when we calculate all reducts using FS.all.reducts.computation. The default value is that the first reduct will be chosen.

Value

A new decision table. Especially for the new decision table resulting from discretization, we obtain a different representation. Values are expressed in intervals instead of labels. For example, a_1 = [-Inf, 1.35] refers to the value a_1 has a value in that range.

#############################################################
## Example 1: The feature selection in RST
## using quickreduct
#############################################################
data(RoughSetData)
decision.table <- RoughSetData$hiring.dt

## generate reducts
red.1 <- FS.quickreduct.RST(decision.table)

new.decTable <- SF.applyDecTable(decision.table, red.1)

#############################################################
## Example 2: The feature selection in FRST
## using fuzzy.QR (fuzzy quickreduct)
#############################################################
data(RoughSetData)
decision.table <- RoughSetData$hiring.dt

## fuzzy quickreduct using fuzzy lower approximation
control <- list(decision.attr = c(5), t.implicator = "lukasiewicz",
                type.relation = c("tolerance", "eq.1"), type.aggregation =
                c("t.tnorm", "lukasiewicz"))
red.2 <- FS.quickreduct.FRST(decision.table, type.method = "fuzzy.dependency",
                            type.QR = "fuzzy.QR", control = control)

## generate new decision table
new.decTable <- SF.applyDecTable(decision.table, red.2)

## Example 3: The Instance selection by IS.FRPS and
## generate new decision table

dt.ex1 <- data.frame(c(0.5, 0.2, 0.3, 0.7, 0.2, 0.2),

## evaluate and select instances

## Example 4: Discretization by determining cut values and
## then generate new decision table
#################################################################
dt.ex2 <- data.frame(c(1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.4, 1.6, 1.3), c(2, 0.5, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1),

decision.table <- SF.asDecisionTable(dataset = dt.ex2, decision.attr = 3,

## get cut values using the local strategy algorithm
cut.values <- D.discretization.RST(decision.table, type.method = "global.discernibility")

## generate new decision table
new.decTable <- SF.applyDecTable(decision.table, cut.values)

## Example 5: Missing value completion
#################################################################
dt.ex1 <- data.frame(
