Gene Expression Programming: Mathematical Modeling by an Artificial Intelligence

Classification problems
 

In this section:


In this section we will use GEP to model three real-world problems, namely, the diagnosis of breast cancer, the assignment of a credit card, and the classification of Fisher’s irises. The first two data sets were obtained from PROBEN1 – a set of neural network benchmark problems and benchmarking rules (Prechelt 1994). Both the technical report and the data sets are available through anonymous FTP from the Neural Bench archive at Carnegie Mellon University (machine ftp.cs.cmu.edu, directory /afs/cs/project/connect/bench/contrib/prechelt) and from the machine ftp.ira.uka.de in directory /pub/neuron. The file name in both cases is proben1.tar.gz. The last dataset, the iris dataset (Fisher 1936), is perhaps the most famous dataset used in data mining and is also freely available online.
