Abstract

The term soft-computing has been introduced by Zadeh in 1994. Soft-computing provides an appropriate paradigm to program malleable and smooth concepts. In this paper a genetic algorithm is proposed to fuse the classification results due to different distance functions. The combination is based on the optimization of a vote strategy and it is applied to cells classification.
