Description
Summary:Real data may have a considerable amount of noise produced by error in data collection, transmission and storage. The noisy training data set increases the training time and complexity of the induced machine learning model, which led to reduce the overall performance. Identifying noisy instances and then eliminating or correcting them are useful techniques in data mining research. This paper investigates misclassified instances issues and proposes a clustering-based and classification filtering algorithm (CLCF) in noise detection and classification model. It applies the k-means clustering technique for noise detection, and then five different classification filtering algorithms are applied for noise filtering. It also employs two well-known techniques for noise classification, namely, removing and relabeling. To evaluate the performance of the CLCF model, several experiments were conducted on four binary data sets. The proposed technique was found to be successful in classify class noisy instances, which is significantly effective for decision making system in several domains such as medical areas. The results shows that the proposed model led to a significant performance improvement compared with before performing noise filtering.
