Abstract

Testors, and particularly typical testors, have been used in feature selection and supervised classification problems. Deterministic algorithms have usually been used to find typical testors. Recently, a new approach based on evolutionary algorithms has been developed. A common problem to test the behavior of both approaches is the necessity of knowing, in advance, the number of typical testors of a given basic matrix. For an arbitrary matrix, this number can not be known unless all typical testors have been found. Therefore, this paper introduces, for the first time, a strategy to generate basic matrices for which the number of typical testors is known without to find them. This method is illustrated with some examples.
