When patterns to be recognised are described by features of continuous type, discretisation becomes either an optional or necessary step in the initial data pre-processing stage. Characteristics of data, distribution of data points in the input space, can significantly influence the process of transformation from real-valued into nominal attributes, and the resulting performance of classification systems employing them. If data include several separate sets, their discretisation becomes more complex, as varying numbers of intervals and different ranges can be constructed for the same variables. The paper presents research on irregularities in data distribution, observed in the context of discretisation processes. Selected discretisation methods were used and their effect on the performance of decision algorithms, induced in classical rough set approach, was investigated. The studied input space was defined by measurable style-markers, which, exploited as characteristic features, facilitate treating a task of stylometric authorship attribution as classification.

In this paper, seven greedy heuristics for construction of association rules are compared from the point of view of the length and coverage of constructed rules. The obtained rules are compared also with optimal ones constructed by dynamic programming algorithms. The average relative difference between length of rules constructed by the best heuristic and minimum length of rules is at most 4%. The same situation is with coverage.
