CXCS: improvements and corporate generalization
Andy Tomlinson, Larry Bull · 2001
CXCS applies rule-linkage to Wilson's XCS model. This approach, based on the earlier proposals of Wilson and Goldberg, introduces a macro-level evolutionary operator which creates structural links between rules in XCS and thus forms corporations of rules within the classifier system population. CXCS has been shown to offer improved performance over XCS in a series of sequential tasks. In this paper the functionality of CXCS is enhanced to provide increased benefits regarding the same class of tasks and the system's ability to form appropriately generalized solutions is examined.
