A model of granular data: a design problem with the Tchebyschev-based clustering
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We introduce a model of granular data emerging through a summarization and processing of numeric data. It supports data analysis and casts it in the setting of data mining. The structure of data is revealed through the FCM equipped with the Tchebyschev (l/sub /spl infin//) metric. The study offers a novel contribution to a gradient-based learning of the prototypes developed in the l/sub /spl infin//-based data space. The l/sub /spl infin// metric promotes a development of easily interpretable information granules, namely hyperboxes. A detailed discussion of their geometry is provided. In particular, we discuss a deformation effect of the hyperbox-shape of granules due to an interaction between the granules. We also show how the clustering gives rise to a two-level topology of information granules. A core part of the topology comes in the form of hyperbox information granules. A residual structure is expressed through detailed, yet difficult to interpret, membership grades. Illustrative examples including synthetic data are studied.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
