Abstract

This paper presents a mixed 0 - 1 integer and linear programming (MILP) model for separation of data via a finite number of nonlinear and nonconvex discriminant functions. The MILP model concurrently optimizes the parameters of the user-provided individual discriminant functions and implements a decision boundary for an optimal separation of data under analysis. The MILP model is extensively tested on six well-studied datasets in data mining research. The comparison of numerical results by the MILP-based classification of data with those produced by the multisurface method and the support vector machine in these experiments and the best from the literature illustrates the efficacy and the usefulness of the new MILP-based classification of data for supervised learning.
