Abstract

Learning classifier systems traditionally use genetic algorithms to facilitate rule discovery, where rule fitness is payoff based. Current research has shifted to the use of accuracy-based fitness. This paper re-examines the use of a particular payoff-based learning classifier system--ZCS. By using simple difference equation models of ZCS, we show that this system is capable of optimal performance subject to appropriate parameter settings. This is demonstrated for both single- and multistep tasks. Optimal performance of ZCS in well-known, multistep maze tasks is then presented to support the findings from the models.
