Abstract :
In this paper, a series of definitions for expand matrix are presented, so as to transform the attributes reduction problem of the decision table into a programming problem. At the same time an immune algorithm based on distance is proposed to solve the problem. The simulation results indicate that the immune algorithm could solve the attributes reduction problem efficiently, especially in saving compute time.
