‘The Peak of Stupidity and ‘The Valley of Despair: HSE Economists Propose an Explanation for the Dunning–Kruger Effect
The Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes a sharp surge in self-confidence among beginners followed by an equally rapid decline as they gain experience, can be explained by the nature of the learning process and the acquisition of new knowledge. This conclusion was reached by Andrey Vorchik of the HSE Faculty of Economic Sciences together with independent researcher Murat Mamyshev. They developed a mathematical model of learning and demonstrated how subjective confidence is formed and changes as knowledge accumulates, as well as how teachers can reduce the ‘valley of despair’ experienced by learners.

Numerical Pattern Mining Through Compression

P. 112–121.
Makhalova T., Kuznetsov S., Napoli A.

Pattern Mining (PM) has a prominent place in Data Science and finds its application in a wide range of domains. To avoid the exponential explosion of patterns different methods have been proposed. They are based on assumptions on interestingness and usually return very different pattern sets. In this paper, we propose to use a compression-based objective as a well-justified and robust interestingness measure. We define the description lengths for datasets and use the Minimum Description Length principle (MDL) to find patterns that ensure the best compression. Our experiments show that the application of MDL to numerical data provides a small and characteristic subset of patterns describing data in a compact way.

In this paper, we revisit pattern mining and study the distribution underlying a binary dataset thanks to the closure structure which is based on passkeys, i.e., minimum generators in equivalence classes robust to noise. We introduce △-closedness, a generalization of the closure operator, where △ measures how a closed set differs from its upper neighbors ...

Explainable Document Classification via Pattern Structures
Sergei O. Kuznetsov, Parakal E. G., Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems 2023 Vol. 776 P. 423–434
Inherently explainable Machine Learning (ML) models are able to provide explanations for their predictions by virtue of their construction. The explanations of a ML model are more comprehensible if they are expressed in terms of its input features. Our paper proposes an inherently explainable pipeline for document classification using pattern structures and Abstract Meaning Representation ...

This paper presents different versions of classification ensemble methods based on pattern structures. Each of these methods is described and tested on multiple datasets (including datasets with exclusively numerical and exclusively nominal features). As a baseline model Random Forest generation is used. For some classification tasks the classification algorithms based on pattern structures showed better ...

Order and lattice theory provides convenient mathematical tools for pattern mining, in particular for condensed irredundant representations of pattern spaces and their efficient generation. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) offers a generic framework, called pattern structures, to formalize many types of patterns, such as itemsets, intervals, graphs, and sequence sets. Moreover, FCA provides generic algorithms to generate irredundantly all ...

Gradual Discovery with Closure Structure of a Concept Lattice
Kuznetsov S., Napoli A., Makhalova T., , in: The 15th International Conference on Concept Lattices and Their Applications CLA2020Issue 2668.: CEUR-WS, 2020. P. 145–157.
An approximate discovery of closed itemsets is usually based on either setting a frequency threshold or computing a sequence of projections. Both approaches, being incremental, do not provide any estimate of the size of the next output and do not ensure that “more interesting patterns” will be generated first. We propose to generate closed itemsets ...

In this article, we present a new data type agnostic algorithm calculating a concept lattice from heterogeneous and complex data. Our NextPriorityConcept algorithm is first introduced and proved in the binary case as an extension of Bordat's algorithm with the notion of strategies to select only some predecessors of each concept, avoiding the generation of ...

Learning Interpretable Prefix-Based Patterns from Demographic Sequences

There are many different methods for computing relevant patterns in sequential data and interpreting the results. In this paper, we compute emerging patterns (EP) in demographic sequences using sequence-based pattern structures, along with different algorithmic solutions. The purpose of this method is to meet the following domain requirement: the obtained patterns must be (closed) frequent contiguous prefixes of the input sequences. ...

Efficient Mining of Subsample-Stable Graph Patterns

A scalable method for mining graph patterns stable under subsampling is proposed. The existing subsample stability and robustness measures are not antimonotonic according to definitions known so far. We study a broader notion of antimonotonicity for graph patterns, so that measures of subsample stability become antimonotonic. Then we propose gSOFIA for mining the most subsample-stable graph patterns. The ...

FCA is a mathematical formalism having many applications in data mining and knowledge discovery. Originally it deals with binary data tables. However, there is a number of extensions that enrich stan dard FCA. In this paper we consider two important extensions: fuzzy FCA and pattern structures, and discuss the relation between them. In particular we introduce a scaling procedure that ...
