💥1 概述

我们开发了两种进化算法，即合取子句进化算法（CCEA）和析取范式进化算法（DNFEA），旨在探索与真实世界数据中的复杂交互相关的因果关系。这些算法可以应用于监督学习任务，帮助我们发现与特定目标结果（比如疾病）相关的复杂多变量关系。在不同类型的数据集中，包括带有噪声、缺失数据和多种数据类型（连续、有序和标称）的情况下，CCEA能够寻找特征（上位）之间的交互。为了防止过拟合特征交互，CCEA还利用特征敏感度函数来辅助筛选。而DNFEA主要用于在CCEA的基础上寻找更强相关性的异构组合，这些组合能够比任何单个连接子句更好地预测输出类别。CCEA和DNFEA都使用超几何概率质量函数作为适应度函数来评估。

总的来说，我们提出了一种新的进化算法，旨在从批量数据中发现复杂分类问题的因果关系规则。这种方法的关键特点包括：（a）使用超几何概率质量函数作为评估适应度的统计指标，以量化临时关联结果与目标类之间的偶然性概率，同时考虑数据集大小、缺失数据和结果类别的分布情况；（b）采用串联年龄分层进化算法，演化出连接子句的简约档案以及这些连接子句的析取，使得每个连接子句都与结果类之间具有概率显著关联；（c）使用单独的档案箱来存储不同顺序的子句，并具有动态调整的顺序特定阈值。我们通过在多个基准问题上的实验验证了该方法的有效性，这些问题包括具有异质性、上位性、重叠、类别关联噪声、缺失数据、无关特征和类别不平衡等各种组合。此外，我们还在更真实的合成基因组数据集上进行了验证，该数据集具有异质性、上位性、外源特征和噪声。在所有合成上位基准问题中，我们始终能够准确恢复出用于生成数据的真实因果关系规则集。最后，我们还讨论了将这种方法应用于真实世界调查数据集的潜在应用，该数据集旨在提供有关恰加斯病可能的生态健康干预措施的信息。
