Title: | A Machine Learning Approach To Analyzing Multi-Attribute Data: Development And Illustration Of The Ordeval Algorithm | Authors: | STREUKENS, Sandra Robnik-Sikonja, Marko VANHOOF, Koen |
Issue Date: | 2011 | Source: | Proceedings of the 40th EMAC conference. | Abstract: | Multi-attribute models are commonly used to assess customers’ evaluative judgments. Typically, the accompanying data are analyzed using regression-based techniques that require a priori specification of the functional form, apply to only a relatively restricted set of functional forms, and implicitly assume that positive and negative changes between two data points are equal (i.e. symmetry). Building on machine learning theory our aim is to develop and illustrate an alternative approach (OrdEval algorithm) for analyzing multi-attribute data that overcomes the above-mentioned problems. Furthermore, using data from two different settings the practical application of the OrdEval algorithm is illustrated. | Notes: | Actual proceedings will be made available during the conference (24-27 May 2011). | Keywords: | Multi-attribute model, Machine learning, Nonlinearity | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/11951 | Link to publication/dataset: | http://www2.ef.uni-lj.si/projekti/emac2011/program_academic_db_search.asp | Category: | C2 | Type: | Proceedings Paper |
