Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
This work presents the GRADIENT (GRAmmar-DrIven ENsemble sysTem) framework for the generation of hybrid multi-level predictors for function approximation and regression analysis tasks. The proposed model uses a context-free grammar guided genetic programming for the automatic building of multicomponent prediction systems with hierarchical structures. A multi-population evolutionary algorithm together with resampling and cross-validatory approaches are used to increase component models' diversity and facilitate more robust and efficient search for accurate solutions. The system has been tested on a number of synthetic and publicly available real-world regression and time series problems for a range of configurations in order to identify and subsequently illustrate and discuss its characteristics and performance. GRADIENT has been shown to be very competitive and versatile when compared to a number of state-of-the-art prediction methods. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
