When applying MLPs, the search for the ideal architecture is a crucial task, since it should should be complex enough to learn the input/output mapping, without overfitting the training data. Under this context, the use of Evolutionary Computation makes a promising global search approach for model selection. On the other hand, ensembles (combinations of models) have been boosting the performance of several Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. In this work, a novel evolutionary technique for MLP design is presented, being also used an ensemble based approach. A set of real world classification and regression tasks was used to test this strategy, comparing it with a heuristic model selection, as well as with other ML algorithms. The results favour the evolutionary MLP ensemble method.Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia - Project POSI/ROBO/43904/2002; FEDER.SpringerUniversidade do MinhoRocha, MiguelCortez, PauloNeves, José2005-032005-03-01T00:00:00Zconference paperinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/892engRIBEIRO, B.; ALBRECHT, R.; DOBNIKAR, D., ed. lit. – “Adaptive and natural computing algorithms : proceedings of ICANGA, Coimbra, 2005.”.
