Abstract

This paper proposes an approach to deriving a fuzzy classifier based on evolutionary supervised clustering, which identifies the optimal clusters necessary to classify classes. The clusters are formed by multi-dimensional weighted Euclidean distance, which allows clusters of varying shapes and sizes. A cluster induces a Gaussian fuzzy antecedent set with unique variance in each dimension, which reflects the tightness of the cluster. The fuzzy classifier is com-posed of as many classification rules as classes. The clusters identified for each class constitute fuzzy sets, which are joined by an "and" connective in the antecedent part of the corresponding rule. The approach is evaluated using six data sets. The comparative results with different classifiers are given.are given.
