Meet MASKS: A novel Multi-Classifier's verification approach (2007.10090v3)

Abstract: In this study, a new ensemble approach for classifiers is introduced. A verification method for better error elimination is developed through the integration of multiple classifiers. A multi-agent system comprised of multiple classifiers is designed to verify the satisfaction of the safety property. In order to examine the reasoning concerning the aggregation of the distributed knowledge, a logical model has been proposed. To verify predefined properties, a Multi-Agent Systems' Knowledge-Sharing algorithm (MASKS) has been formulated and developed. As a rigorous evaluation, we applied this model to the Fashion-MNIST, MNIST, and Fruit-360 datasets, where it reduced the error rate to approximately one-tenth of the individual classifiers.
