Abstract

In this paper, we propose a Semi-UCS, which is an extension of the classical sUpervised Classifier System (UCS) [1] for semi-supervised learning tasks. A UCS works under a supervised learning scheme and uses only labeled data to train the system. In the Semi-UCS, we add an additional semi-supervised learning component to the original UCS, enablingthe LCS to learn from both labeled and unlabeled data. We provide three methods of how this semi-supervised learning component can be implemented: self-learning method, k-NN distance measure method and tri-training method. The Semi-UCS enlarges UCS's' application domains into semi-supervised settings and is a great addition to the LCS's model family. Experimental results on benchmark data sets of UCI repository have shown that Semi-UCS reaches a good performance for semi-supervised learning tasks.
