Combining Instance-Based and Model-Based Learning

Abstract

This paper concerns learning tasks that require the prediction of a continuous value rather than a discrete class. A general method is presented that allows predictions to use both instance-based and model-based learning. Results with three approaches to constructing models and with eight datasets demonstrate improvements due to the composite method. Keywords: learning with continuous classes, instance-based learning, model-based learning, empirical evaluation.
