Backfitting of fuzzy rules is an Iterative Rule Learning technique for obtaining the knowledge base of a fuzzy rule-based
system in regression problems. It consists in fitting one fuzzy rule to the data, and replacing the whole training set by
the residual of the approximation. The obtained rule is added to the knowledge base, and the process is repeated until the
residual is zero, or near zero. Such a design has been extended to imprecise data for which the observation error is small.
Nevertheless, when this error is moderate or high, the learning can stop early. In this kind of algorithms, the specificity
of the residual might decrease when a new rule is added. There may happen that the residual grows so wide that it covers the
value zero for all points (thus the algorithm stops), but we have not yet extracted all the information available in the dataset.
Focusing on this problem, this paper is about datasets with medium to high discrepancies between the observed and the actual
values of the variables, such as those containing missing values and coarsely discretized data. We will show that the quality
of the iterative learning degrades in this kind of problems, because it does not make full use of all the available information.
As an alternative to sequentially obtaining rules, we propose a new multiobjective Genetic Cooperative Competitive Learning
(GCCL) algorithm. In our approach, each individual in the population codifies one rule, which competes in the population in
terms of maximum coverage and fitting, while the individuals in the population cooperate to form the knowledge base.

With the complexity of modern vehicles tremendously increasing, quality engineers play a key role within today’s automotive
industry. Field data analysis supports corrective actions in development, production and after sales support. We decompose
the requirements and show that association rules, being a popular approach to generating explanative models, still exhibit
shortcomings. Interactive rule cubes, which have been proposed recently, are a promising alternative. We extend this work
by introducing a way of intuitively visualizing and meaningfully ranking them. Moreover, we present methods to interactively
factorize a problem and validate hypotheses by ranking patterns based on expectations, and by browsing a cube-based network
of related influences. All this is currently in use as an interactive tool for warranty data analysis in the automotive industry.
A real-world case study shows how engineers successfully use it in identifying root causes of quality issues.

We present a study of using camera-phones and visual-tags to access mobile services. Firstly, a user-experience study is described in which participants were both observed learning to interact with a prototype mobile service and interviewed
about their experiences. Secondly, a pointing-device task is presented in which quantitative data was gathered regarding the speed and accuracy with which participants aimed and clicked
on visual-tags using camera-phones. We found that participants’ attitudes to visual-tag-based applications were broadly positive,
although they had several important reservations about camera-phone technology more generally. Data from our pointing-device
task demonstrated that novice users were able to aim and click on visual-tags quickly (well under 3 s per pointing-device
trial on average) and accurately (almost all meeting our defined speed/accuracy tradeoff of 6% error-rate). Based on our findings,
design lessons for camera-phone and visual-tag applications are presented.

This paper describes the simulated car racing competition that was arranged as part of the 2007 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary
Computation. Both the game that was used as the domain for the competition, the controllers submitted as entries to the competition
and its results are presented. With this paper, we hope to provide some insight into the efficacy of various computational
intelligence methods on a well-defined game task, as well as an example of one way of running a competition. In the process,
we provide a set of reference results for those who wish to use the simplerace game to benchmark their own algorithms. The paper is co-authored by the organizers and participants of the competition.

This paper presents a scheme for ranking of spelling error corrections for Urdu. Conventionally spell-checking techniques
do not provide any explicit ranking mechanism. Ranking is either implicit in the correction algorithm or corrections are not
ranked at all. The research presented in this paper shows that for Urdu, phonetic similarity between the corrections and the
erroneous word can serve as a useful parameter for ranking the corrections. This combined with a new technique Shapex that
uses visual similarity of characters for ranking gives an improvement of 23% in the accuracy of the one-best match compared
to the result obtained when the ranking is done on the basis of word frequencies only.

Recently, multi-objective evolutionary algorithms have been applied to improve the difficult tradeoff between interpretability
and accuracy of fuzzy rule-based systems. It is known that both requirements are usually contradictory, however, these kinds
of algorithms can obtain a set of solutions with different trade-offs. This contribution analyzes different application alternatives
in order to attain the desired accuracy/interpr-etability balance by maintaining the improved accuracy that a tuning of membership
functions could give but trying to obtain more compact models. In this way, we propose the use of multi-objective evolutionary
algorithms as a tool to get almost one improved solution with respect to a classic single objective approach (a solution that
could dominate the one obtained by such algorithm in terms of the system error and number of rules). To do that, this work
presents and analyzes the application of six different multi-objective evolutionary algorithms to obtain simpler and still
accurate linguistic fuzzy models by performing rule selection and a tuning of the membership functions. The results on two
different scenarios show that the use of expert knowledge in the algorithm design process significantly improves the search
ability of these algorithms and that they are able to improve both objectives together, obtaining more accurate and at the
same time simpler models with respect to the single objective based approach.

Decision tree is one of the most effective and widely used methods for classification. However, many real-world applications
require instances to be ranked by the probability of class membership. The area under the receiver operating characteristics
curve, simply AUC, has been recently used as a measure for ranking performance of learning algorithms. In this paper, we present
two novel class probability estimation algorithms to improve the ranking performance of decision tree. Instead of estimating
the probability of class membership using simple voting at the leaf where the test instance falls into, our algorithms use
similarity-weighted voting and naive Bayes. We design empirical experiments to verify that our new algorithms significantly
outperform the recent decision tree ranking algorithm C4.4 in terms of AUC.

In the near future, our life will normally be surrounded with fairly complicated artifacts, enabled by the autonomous robot
and brain–machine interface technologies. In this paper, we argue that what we call the responsibility flaw problem and the
inappropriate use problem need to be overcome in order for us to benefit from complicated artifacts. In order to solve these
problems, we propose an approach to endowing artifacts with an ability of socially communicating with other agents based on
the artifact-as-a-half-mirror metaphor. The idea is to have future artifacts behave according to the hybrid intention composed
of the owner’s intention and the social rules. We outline the approach and discuss its feasibility together with preliminary
work.

Quantitative usability requirements are a critical but challenging, and hence an often neglected aspect of a usability engineering process. A case study is described where quantitative usability requirements played a key role in the development of a new user interface of a mobile phone. Within the practical constraints of the project, existing methods for determining usability requirements and evaluating the extent to which these are met, could not be applied as such, therefore tailored methods had to be developed. These methods and their applications are discussed. 相似文献

A number of mobile applications have emerged that allow users to locate one another. However, people have expressed concerns
about the privacy implications associated with this class of software, suggesting that broad adoption may only happen to the
extent that these concerns are adequately addressed. In this article, we report on our work on P eopleF inder, an application that enables cell phone and laptop users to selectively share their locations with others (e.g. friends,
family, and colleagues). The objective of our work has been to better understand people’s attitudes and behaviors towards
privacy as they interact with such an application, and to explore technologies that empower users to more effectively and
efficiently specify their privacy preferences (or “policies”). These technologies include user interfaces for specifying rules
and auditing disclosures, as well as machine learning techniques to refine user policies based on their feedback. We present
evaluations of these technologies in the context of one laboratory study and three field studies.
