Abstract
Rule based transparent classifiers can be generated by partitioning the input space into a number of sub spaces. These systems can be considered as fuzzy classifiers assigning membership functions to the partitions in each dimension. A flexible genetic algorithm based method is compared with a heuristic method proposed iu this paper considering the performance and running time. It is shown that for complex real world type of applications, a preprocessing step with neural clustering methods reduces the running time of the genetic algorithm baaed method drastically.
