IMPROVING CLASSIFICATION PERFORMANCE USING ENSEMBLE LEARNING APPROACH

The data mining techniques are used for evaluation of the data in order to find and represent the data in such manner by which the applications are becomes beneficial. Therefore, different kinds of computational algorithms and modeling’s are incorporated for analyzing the data. These computational algorithms are help to understand the data patterns and their application utility. The data mining algorithms supports supervised as well as unsupervised techniques of data analysis. This work is aimed to investigate about the supervised learning technique specifically performance improvements on classification techniques. The proposed classification model includes the multiple classifiers namely Bayesian classifier, k-nearest neighbor and the c4.5 decision tree algorithm. By nature of the outcomes and the modeling of the data these algorithms are functioning differently from each other. Thus, a weight based classification technique is introduced in this work. The weight is a combination of outcomes provided by the implemented three classifiers in terms of their predicted class labels. Using the weighted outcomes, the final class label for the input data instance is decided. The implementation of the proposed working model is performed with the help of JAVA and WEKA classes. The results obtained by experimentation of the proposed approach with the vehicle data set demonstrate the high accurate classification results. Thus, the proposed model is an effective classification technique as compared to single model implementation for classification task.
