Abstract

We present three evolutionary symbolic regression-based classification algorithms for binary and multinomial datasets: GPLearnClf CartesianClf and ClaSyCo. Tested over 162 datasets and compared to three state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms - -XGBoost, LightGBM, and a deep neural network - -we find our algorithms to be competitive. Further, we demonstrate how to find the best method for one's dataset automatically, through the use of a state-of-the-art hyperparameter optimizer.
