Abstract

Aiming at the problem that attribute reduction methods based on test cost sensitivity may change the decision domain, this paper introduced the concept of decision domain distribution preservation, combining the cost of obtaining data, proposed a test cost probability neighborhood rough set attribute reduction algorithm that preserves the decision domain. Firstly, this paper defined a probability neighborhood conditional information quantity with monotonic (α, β) positive domain distribution based on conditional information quantity and used it to obtain the core attributes of the decision table; Secondly, gave a method to measure attribute importance using neighborhood conditional entropy and constructed a attribute influence evaluation indicators based on attribute importance and the testing cost of the attribute itself. Then, used the core attribute set as the initial set, added the attribute with the high importance and low testing cost to the core set, and the reduced subset is output through iteration. The case analysis and experimental results on the UCI datasets show that compared with the comparative algorithm, the proposed algorithm obtains a reduced subset with lower testing cost without reducing classification accuracy, and the decision domain distribution remains unchanged.
