Abstract

The paper demonstrates the research methodology focused on observations of relations between attribute relevance, displayed by rankings, and discretisation. Instead of transforming all continuous attributes before data exploration, the variables were gradually processed, and the impact of such a change on the performance of a classifier was studied. Considerable experiments carried out on stylometric data illustrate that selective discretisation could be more advantageous to predictive accuracy than some uniform transformation of all features.
