Abstract

The interpretability and flexibility of fuzzy if-then rules make them a popular basis for classifiers. It is common to extract them from a database of examples. However, the data available in many practical applications are often unlabeled, and must be labeled manually by the user or by expensive analyses. The idea of semi-supervised learning is to use as much labeled data as available and try to additionally exploit the information in the unlabeled data. In this paper we describe an approach to learn fuzzy classification rules from partially labeled datasets.
