Abstract

Rough set theory (RST), support vector machine (SVM), and decision tree (DT) are brightly data mining methodologies for classification prediction tasks. While the accuracy for class prediction is highly emphasized, the ability to generate rules for decision support is also important in some practical applications. Studies have shown the ability of RST for feature selection while SVM and DT are significantly on their predictive power. Moreover, the ability of DT for rule generation is an attractive function. This study intents to integrate the advantages of RST, SVM and DT approaches to develop a hybrid data mining approach to improve the performance of class prediction as well as rule generation.
