Abstract:
Heuristic classification is integrated with statistical classification to classify an input data set. Heuristic conditions or rule are assigned heuristic rule identifiers, which are inserted into the feature list of a statistical classifier. In this manner, the heuristic rule identifiers are treated as statistical features, the counts for which are incremented or flagged when an input data set satisfies the associated heuristic rule. Thereafter, the statistical classification score therefore includes the contribution of the heuristic rule in its result.
"The CME is scrambling to get rid of the black eye left from the MF Global fiasco," added John Kleist, senior analyst and broker with ebottrading.com, which has grain and livestock clients.
Traders "underestimated how the acres lost in the east could be made up by plantings in the west, and by plantings on the lawn," said John Kleist, senior analyst at ebottrading.com, an Illinois brokerage.
