Rough Set based Ensemble Learning Algorithm for Agricultural Data Classification

Agricultural data classification attracts more and more attention in the research area of intelligent agriculture. As a kind of important machine learning methods, ensemble learning uses multiple base classifiers to deal with classification problems. The rough set theory is a powerful mathematical approach to process unclear and uncertain data. In this paper, a rough set based ensemble learning algorithm is proposed to classify the agricultural data effectively and efficiently. An experimental comparison of different algorithms is conducted on four agricultural datasets. The results of experiment indicate that the proposed algorithm improves performance obviously.
