Inferring statistical trends of the COVID19 pandemic from current data. Where probability meets fuzziness

B Apolloni - Information Sciences, 2021 - Elsevier
We introduce unprecedented tools to infer approximate evolution features of the COVID19
outbreak when these features are altered by containment measures. In this framework we …

Algorithmic inference of two-parameter gamma distribution

B Apolloni, S Bassis - Communications in Statistics-Simulation and …, 2009 - Taylor & Francis
We provide an estimation procedure of the two-parameter Gamma distribution based on the
Algorithmic Inference approach. As a key feature of this approach, we compute the joint …

A general framework for learning rules from data

B Apolloni, A Esposito, D Malchiodi… - … on Neural Networks, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
With the aim of getting understandable symbolic rules to explain a given phenomenon, we
split the task of learning these rules from sensory data in two phases: a multilayer perceptron …

Using communities of practice to identify competencies

While there is currently a significant amount of work being done to promote competency-
based education (CBE), many efforts are focused on the design, development …

Confidence about possible explanations

B Apolloni, S Bassis - IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and …, 2011 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We revise the notion of confidence with which we estimate the parameters of a given
distribution law in terms of their compatibility with the sample we have observed. This is a …

Learning rule representations from data

B Apolloni, A Brega, D Malchiodi… - … on Systems, Man …, 2006 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We discuss a procedure which extracts statistical and entropic information from data in order
to discover Boolean rules underlying them. We work within a granular computing framework …

Applying Theory to Inform Competency Development: Bootstrap** Epistemic Communities in Growing Specialists

MG Mupepi, SC Mupepi - International Journal of Productivity …, 2016 - igi-global.com

specialization in divided labor and structuring a successful enterprise. A knowledge network …

Feature selection via Boolean independent component analysis

B Apolloni, S Bassis, A Brega - Information Sciences, 2009 - Elsevier
We devise a feature selection method in terms of a follow-out utility of a special classification
procedure. In turn, we root the latter on binary features which we extract from the input …

Bootstrap** complex functions

B Apolloni, S Bassis, S Gaito, D Malchiodi - Nonlinear Analysis: Hybrid …, 2008 - Elsevier
We formulate a new family of bootstrap algorithms suitable for learning non-Boolean
functions from data. Within the Algorithmic Inference framework, the key idea is to consider a …

Interpolating support information granules

B Apolloni, S Bassis, D Malchiodi, W Pedrycz - Neurocomputing, 2008 - Elsevier
We introduce a regression method that fully exploits both global and local information about
a set of points in search of a suitable function explaining their mutual relationships. The …
