Original Kurzfassung:
A recent approach for improving the accuracy of ensemble models is confidence-based modeling. Thereby, confidence measures, which indicate an ensemble prediction's reliability, are used for identifying unreliable predictions in order to improve a model's accuracy among reliable predictions. However, despite promising results in previous work, no comparable results for public benchmark data sets have been published yet.
This paper applies confidence-based modeling with GP-based symbolic binary classification ensembles on a set of medical benchmark problems to make statements about the concept's general applicability. Moreover, extensions for multiclass classification problems are proposed.
