Abstract

Vote-based is one of the ensembles learning methods in which the individual classifier is situated on numerous weighted categories of the training datasets. In designing a method, training, validation and test sets are applied in terms of an ensemble approach to developing an efficient and robust binary classification model. Similarly, ensemble learning is the most prominent and broad research area of Machine Learning (ML) and image recognition, which assists in enhancing the capability of performance. In most cases, the ensemble learning algorithm yields better performance than ML algorithms. Unlike existing methods, the proposed technique aggregates an ensemble classifier, known as vote-based, to employ and integrate the advantage of ML classifiers, which are Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Naive Bayes (NB) and Logistic Model Tree (LMT). This paper proposes an ensemble framework that aims to evaluate datasets from the UCI ML repository by adopting performance analysis. Furthermore, the experimental outcomes indicate that the proposed method provides more accurate results according to the base learner approaches in terms of accuracy rates, an area under the curve (AUC), precision, recall, and F-measure values.
