Block-Wise Construction of Tree-like Relational Features with Monotone Reducibility and Redundancy

Abstract

We describe an algorithm for constructing a set of tree-like conjunctive relational features by combining smaller conjunctive blocks. Unlike traditional level-wise approaches which preserve the monotonicity of frequency, our block-wise approach preserves monotonicity of feature reducibility and redundancy, which are important in propositionalization employed in the context of classification learning. With pruning based on these properties, our block-wise approach efficiently scales to features including tens of first-order atoms, far beyond the reach of state-of-the art propositionalization or inductive logic programming systems.
