Abstract


Nowadays, one of the critical problems related to data mining is the processing of large data sets. This article presents an algorithm that may apply to the issues associated with classifying large-volume data sets. The motivation behind defining this type of algorithm was that the methods used to process this data type are subject to several significant limitations. The first considerable limitation of using classical classification methods is ensuring a constant data size. The second type of constraint is related to the data dimension. The last limitation in using classic classification algorithms is associated with the situation in which a given input vector may contain data belonging to many classes simultaneously, in which case we are talking about so-called multi-class vectors. The presented algorithm is inspired by the method of chromatographic separation of chemical substances. This method is widely and successfully used in analytical chemistry. As we know, in the case of chromatographic separation, we are dealing with a similar class of problems that occur when processing large data sets, firstly: the molecules of a chemical substance have a different number of molecules - i.e., they have different lengths, which corresponds to the situation that occurs when processing large data sets. In this work, a classification algorithm inspired by the mechanism of resolution chromatography is presented. The article presents the results of calculations for sample data sets. It discusses issues related to the properties of the defined algorithm, which concern the algorithm training process and the classification of single-class and multi-class data.
