Abstract
In this paper, a supervised multi-class classification approach called Adaptive Selection of Information Components (ASIC) is presented. ASIC has the facilities to (i) handle both numerical and nominal features in a data set, (ii) pre-process the training data set to accentuate the spatial differences among the classes in the training data set to reduce further computational load requirements, and (iii) conduct supervised classification with the C-RSPM (Collateral Representative Subspace Projection Modeling) approach. Experimental results on a variety of data sets have shown that the proposed ASIC approach outperforms other well-known supervised classification methods such as C4.5, KNN, SVM, MLP, BN, RF, Logistic, and C-RSPM, with higher classification accuracy, lower training and classification times, and reduced memory storage and processing power requirements.
