Abstract

Ant programming is a kind of automatic programming that generates computer programs by using the ant colony metaheuristic as the search technique. It has demonstrated good generalization ability for the extraction of comprehensible classifiers. To date, three ant programming algorithms for classification rule mining have been proposed in the literature: two of them are devoted to regular classification, differing mainly in the optimization approach, single-objective or multi-objective, while the third one is focused on imbalanced domains. This chapter collects these algorithms, presenting different experimental studies that confirm the aptitude of this metaheuristic to address this data-mining task.
