A hybrid decision tree/genetic algorithm method for data mining [PDF]
This paper addresses the well-known classification task of data mining, where the objective is to predict the class which an example belongs to. Discovered knowledge is expressed in the form of high-level, easy-to-interpret classification rules.

A new sequential covering strategy for inducing classification rules with ant colony algorithms [PDF]
Ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms have been successfully applied to discover a list of classification rules. In general, these algorithms follow a sequential covering strategy, where a single rule is discovered at each iteration of the algorithm ...

Improving the interpretability of classification rules discovered by an ant colony algorithm. [PDF]
The vast majority of Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) al- gorithms for inducing classification rules use an ACO-based procedure to create a rule in an one-at-a-time fashion. An improved search strategy has been proposed in the cAnt- MinerPB algorithm, where
