Optimization of Granulation-Degranulation Mechanism Through Neurocomputing.

Information granulation and degranulation play a fundamental role in granular computing (GrC). Given a collection of information granules (referred to as reference information granules), the essence of the granulation process (encoding) is to represent each data (either numeric or granular) in terms of these reference information granules. The degranulation process (decoding) that realizes the reconstruction of original data is associated with a certain level of reconstruction error. An important issue is how to reduce the reconstruction error such that the data could be reconstructed more accurately. In this study, the granulation process is realized by involving fuzzy clustering. A novel neural network is leveraged in the consecutive degranulation process, which could help significantly reduce the reconstruction error. We show that the proposed degranulation architecture exhibits improved capabilities in reconstructing original data in comparison with other methods. A series of experiments with the use of synthetic data and publicly available datasets coming from the machine-learning repository demonstrates the superiority of the proposed method over some existing alternatives.
