Since transactions may contain quantitative values, many approaches have been proposed to derive membership functions for mining fuzzy association rules using genetic algorithms (GAs), a process known as genetic-fuzzy data mining. However, existing approaches assume that the number of linguistic terms is predefined. Thus, this study proposes a genetic-fuzzy mining approach for extracting an appropriate number of linguistic terms and their membership functions used in fuzzy data mining for the given items. The proposed algorithm adjusts membership functions using GAs and then uses them to fuzzify the quantitative transactions. Each individual in the population represents a possible set of membership functions for the items and is divided into two parts, control genes (CGs) and parametric genes (PGs). CGs are encoded into binary strings and used to determine whether membership functions are active. Each set of membership functions for an item is encoded as PGs with real-number schema. In addition, seven fitness functions are proposed, each of which is used to evaluate the goodness of the obtained membership functions and used as the evolutionary criteria in GA. After the GA process terminates, a better set of association rules with a suitable set of membership functions is obtained. Experiments are made to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This chapter follows the working men's lives beyond the workplace, such as weekly volunteer cleaning in Tokyo Bay and marathon club activities. It introduces the vibrant space of the Bayside Half Marathon Club, whose active membership consisted of around fifty to sixty people who met regularly on weekends as well as after work. It also looks at the kinds of issues that arose in the club in terms of Japanese-style, highly managed leadership and provision for members versus laissez-faire-style, self-directed leadership that resonated with the kinds of tensions echoing in corporate hallways across Japan. The chapter explains how a leisure club like Bayside Half is deeply embedded in Japanese society as the social dynamics and ideologies resonate with those found in other leisure spaces and corporate spaces. It addresses the question on whether the highly institutionalized leisure space of a marathon club is a microcosm of corporate Japan.

In his excellent book Charles Ives and His America (Victor Gollancz Ltd., London, 1976) Frank R. Rossiter presents the most thorough psychosociological study yet made of the life and times of this frequently misunderstood composer—dismissed as a hack by many, elevated to cult figure status by others, realistically appraised by comparatively few. Several chapters examine Ives's personal and musical relationships with other advanced composers working in America during his lifetime. Though he had virtually stopped composing by the 1920's and early 30's, Ives helped finance concerts for the Pan American Association of Composers—whose more active membership included Edgar Varèse, Wallingford Riegger, Henry Cowell, and Carl Ruggles—and the publication of much of their music in Cowell's New Music edition. Thus he became acquainted with these composers, in whose work is found ‘the American counterpart to the rich experimentalism of the Viennese school’. His relationship with them ranged from bitter antagonism (of Varèse) to close friendship (with Cowell and Ruggles). Before the recent ‘complete’ recording of his music, Ruggles remained comparatively unknown even in America, except to those fortunate enough to stumble across his name and music via Ives.
