Candidate Elimination Algorithm in Python

 

Python Program to Implement Candidate Elimination Algorithm to get Consistent Version Space

Exp. No. 2. For a given set of training data examples stored in a .CSV file, implement and demonstrate the Candidate-Elimination algorithm in python to output a description of the set of all hypotheses consistent with the training examples.

Candidate Elimination Algorithm Machine Learning

For each training example d, do:
     If d is positive example
         Remove from G any hypothesis h inconsistent with d
         For each hypothesis s in S not consistent with d:
              Remove s from S
              Add to S all minimal generalizations of s consistent with d and having a generalization in G
              Remove from S any hypothesis with a more specific h in S
     If d is negative example
          Remove from S any hypothesis h inconsistent with d
          For each hypothesis g in G not consistent with d:
                Remove g from G
                Add to G all minimal specializations of g consistent with d and having a specialization in S
                Remove from G any hypothesis having a more general hypothesis in G
