Granular-ball computing: an efficient, robust, and interpretable adaptive multi-granularity representation and computation method

arXiv:2304. 11171v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: To overcome the limitations of point-based inputs, overly fine computation and limited adaptability in existing artificial intelligence methods, Guoyin Wang and Shuyin Xia proposed granular-ball computing as a new artificial intelligence learning paradigm.
