Symbolic Regression for Data Modeling

Target audience: Beginner
Estimated reading time: 6'




Overview

Symbolic Regression allows domain experts to create, add modify rules or policies extracted from data. The most commonly used algorithms used in Symbolic Regression are:
  • Genetic Algorithms
  • Learning Classifiers Systems
Symbolic regression is used in many application ranging from network performance optimization, predicting failure (MTBF), streaming data to detecting security breaches.


Presentation

The following presentation describes the main components, benefits and drawbacks of symbolic regression.
