Abstract

In this paper we present a new fuzzy decision tree representation for data classification using genetic programming. The new fuzzy representation utilizes fuzzy clusters for handling continuous attributes. To make optimal use of the fuzzy classifications of this representation an extra fitness measure is used. The new fuzzy representation will be compared, using several machine learning data sets, to a similar non-fuzzy representation as well as to some other evolutionary and non-evolutionary algorithms from literature.
