Structure Identification for Complex System and Inference Interpretable Rules

摘要

model of Complex and large systems which are usually characterized by the difficulty of formalizing and the lack of expertise are built from data representing instances of the system. The drawback of these structure selection methods is that they pay particular attention to the numerical accuracy of the resulting model and little attention to the qualitative and semantic aspect the use of a large number of input variables which leads to the introduction of redundant elements hence poor transparency and excessive complexity of the model is obtained. To ovoid these problems, a particular interest should be given for selecting relevant input variables that can provide a reasonable compromise between the quality of approximation, the complexity and the transparency of the model. The proposed approach for structure selection assumes constraints on the number of variables to be selected in the initial combination to describe the model. Relevant inputs are found from input-output data and variables with the highest correlation coefficient with the output variable are selected in the initial combination.
