In this paper, genetic algorithms are used in machine learning classification task. They act as a constructive induction engine,
which selects features and adjusts weights of attributes, in order to obtain the highest classification accuracy. We compare
two classification approaches: a single 1-NN and a n
2 meta-classifier. For the n
2-classifier, the idea of an improvement of classification accuracy is based on independent modification of descriptions of
examples for each pair of n classes. Finally, it gives (n
2−n)/2 spaces of attributes dedicated for discrimination of pairs of classes. The computational experiment was performed on a
medical data set. Its results reveal the utility of using genetic algorithms for features selection and weight adjusting,
and point out the advantage of using a multi-classification model (n
2-classifier) with constructive induction in relation to the analogous single-classifier approach.
