Abstract

Purpose: Extracting comprehensible classification rules is the most emphasized concept in data mining researches. In order to obtain accurate and comprehensible classification rules from databases, a new approach is proposed by combining advantages of artificial neural networks (ANN) and swarm intelligence.
