The classification problem concerning crisp-valued data has been well resolved. However, interval-valued data, where all of the observations' features are described by intervals, are also a common data type in real-world scenarios. For example, the data extracted by many measuring devices are not exact numbers but intervals. In this article, we focus on a highly challenging problem called learning from interval-valued data (LIND), where we aim to learn a classifier with high performance on interval-valued observations. First, we obtain the estimation error bound of the LIND problem based on the Rademacher complexity. Then, we give the theoretical analysis to show the strengths of multiview learning on classification problems, which inspires us to construct a new algorithm called multiview interval information extraction (Mv-IIE) approach for improving classification accuracy on interval-valued data. The experiment comparisons with several baselines on both synthetic and real-world datasets illustrate the superiority of the proposed framework in handling interval-valued data. Moreover, we describe an application of Mv-IIE that we can prevent data privacy leakage by transforming crisp-valued (raw) data into interval-valued data.
