Abstract
In essence, data mining consists of extracting knowledge from data. This paper proposes a co-evolutionary system for discovering fuzzy classification rules. The system uses two evolutionary algorithms: a genetic programming (GP) algorithm evolving a population of fuzzy rule sets and a simple evolutionary algorithm evolving a population of membership function definitions. The two populations co-evolve, so that the final result of the co-evolutionary process is a fuzzy rule set and a set of membership function definitions which are well adapted to each other. In addition, our system also has some innovative ideas with respect to the encoding of GP individuals representing rule sets. The basic idea is that our individual encoding scheme incorporates several syntactical restrictions that facilitate the handling of rule sets in disjunctive normal form. We have also adapted GP operators to better work with the proposed individual encoding scheme.
