Abstract :
Neuro-genetic systems are biologically inspired computational models that use evolutionary algorithms (EAs) in conjunction with neural networks (NNs) to solve problems. They are especially useful in classification problems in which classifier systems are not able to provide easy answers. In this paper a novel neuro-genetic approach is used in order to predict a known classification problem, related to dermatology diseases.
