	abstract = {Many different fuzzy aggregation operators have been successfully used to combine the outputs provided by the individual classifiers in a multiclassification system. However, up to our knowledge, the use of fuzzy combination methods composed of a fuzzy system is less extended. By using a fuzzy linguistic rule-based classification system as a combination method, the resulting classifier ensemble would show a hierarchical structure and the operation of the latter component would be transparent to the user. Moreover, for the specific case of fuzzy multiclassification systems, the new approach could also become a smart way to allow fuzzy classifiers to deal with high dimensional problems avoiding the curse of dimensionality. The present contribution establishes the first basis in this direction by introducing a genetic fuzzy system-based framework to build the fuzzy linguistic combination method for a bagging fuzzy multiclassification system.},

	abstract = {In the design of fuzzy rule-based classification systems (FRBCSs) a feature selection process which determines the most relevant features is a crucial component in the majority of the classification problems. This simplification process increases the efficiency of the design process, improves the interpretability of the FRBCS obtained and its generalization capacity. Most of the feature selection algorithms provide a set of variables which are adequate for the induction process according to different quality measures. Nevertheless it can be useful for the induction process to determine not only a set of variables but also different set of variables. These sets of variables can be used for the design of a set of FRBCSs which can be combined in a multiclassifler system, improving the prediction capacity increasing its description capacity. In this work, different proposals of niching genetic algorithms for the feature selection process are analyzed. The different sets of features provided by them are used in a multiclassifier system designed by means of a genetic proposal. The experimentation shows the adaptation of this type of genetic algorithms to the FRBCS design.},

	abstract = {Fuzzy rule bases can be regarded as mixtures of experts, and boosting techniques can be applied to learn them from data. In particular, provided that adequate reasoning methods are used, fuzzy models are extended additive models, thus backfitting can be applied to them. We propose to use an implementation of backfitting that uses a genetic algorithm for fitting submodels to residuals and we also show that it is both more accurate and faster than other fuzzy rule learning methods.},
