Abstract

In the paper, we present a novel approach to calculating a new (extra) attribute (feature) using a constructive feature induction mechanism. The problem being solved is founded on coefficients for values of existing attributes determined empirically using evolutionary strategies with fitness functions based on parameters calculated from decision trees generated for extended decision tables.
