Abstract
Genetic programming (GP) can automat- ically fuse given classifiers to produce a combined classifier whose Receiver Operat- ing Characteristics (ROC) are better than [Scott et al., 1998b]’s “Maximum Realisable Receiver Operating Characteristics” (MR- ROC). I.e. better than their convex hull. This is demonstrated on artificial, medical and satellite image processing bench marks.
