Abstract

The paper is an experimental study of using the rough sets based rule induction algorithmMODLEM in the framework of multiple classifiers. Particular attention is paid to using a meta-classifier called combiner, which learns how to aggregate answers of component classifiers. The experimental results confirm that the range of classification improvement for the combiner depends on the independence of errors made by the component classifiers. Moreover, we summarize the experience with using MODLEM in other multiple classifiers, namely the bagging and n2 classifiers.
