Abstract

Classification problems in which the number of attributes is larger than the number of examples are increasingly common with rapid technological advances in data collection. Also numerical data are predominant in real world applications and many algorithms in supervised learning are restricted to discrete attributes. Focusing on these issues, we proposed an improvement in a fuzzy discretization method by means of introduction of a bagging process in the different phases of the method. The bagging process tries to solve problems which can appear with small size datasets. Also we show the benefits that bagging introduces in the method by means of several experiments. The experiments are validated by means of statistical test.
