摘要: Ensemble strategy is important to develop a decomposition and ensemble method for multi-class classification problems. Most existing strategies use predetermined heuristic decision rules. In this work, we build up the rules by optimizing directed acyclic graph (ODDAG) with classical fuzzy trees posterior probabilities of binary classifiers from one-vs-one (OVO) or one-vs-all (OVA) Four widely used extensible algorithms ten methods incorporating four (BCs) have been tested on 25 data sets. The empirical results show that based using ODDAG are among top achieve best performance in terms two different measures.
