Target Set Truth Table Value

[edit | edit source]

, where:[1]

  • vi,j is the element's attribute value,
  • i is the ith element's index value, where,
i = 0...G' where G is the number of elements in the bounded class, and,
  • j is the jth characteristic's index value, where,
j = 0...K and where,
  • K is the number of characteristics in the target set,
  • V is highest value of logic in the group,
  • V(K-j) is the positional value of the jth characteristic.

, where,

nti contains the multiset count for each truth table value[2].

Notes

[edit | edit source]
  1. As the characteristic with the greatest separatory value is moved to the next most significant position, K is incremented to expand the target set size from two characteristics to the number of characteristics in the group or the number of characteristics which result in 100% separation. For the initial target set with one characteristic the separatory value is computed individually for each characteristic in the group to find the initial characteristic with the highest separatory value.
