The e-ROSA project seeks to build a shared vision of a future sustainable e-infrastructure for research and education in agriculture in order to promote Open Science in this field and as such contribute to addressing related societal challenges. In order to achieve this goal, e-ROSA’s first objective is to bring together the relevant scientific communities and stakeholders and engage them in the process of coelaboration of an ambitious, practical roadmap that provides the basis for the design and implementation of such an e-infrastructure in the years to come.

This paper proposes a hybrid multilogistic methodology, named logistic regression using initial and radial basis function (RBF) covariates. The process for obtaining the coefficients is carried out in three steps. First, an evolutionary programming (EP) algorithm is applied, in order to produce an RBF neural network (RBFNN) with a reduced number of RBF transformations and the simplest structure possible. Then, the initial attribute space (or, as commonly known as in logistic regression literature, the covariate space) is transformed by adding the nonlinear transformations of the input variables given by the RBFs of the best individual in the final generation. Finally, a maximum likelihood optimization method determines the coefficients associated with a multilogistic regression model built in this augmented covariate space. In this final step, two different multilogistic regression algorithms are applied: one considers all initial and RBF covariates (multilogistic initial-RBF regression) and the other one incrementally constructs the model and applies cross validation, resulting in an automatic covariate selection [simplelogistic initial-RBF regression (SLIRBF)]. Both methods include a regularization parameter, which has been also optimized. The methodology proposed is tested using 18 benchmark classification problems from well-known machine learning problems and two real agronomical problems. The results are compared with the corresponding multilogistic regression methods applied to the initial covariate space, to the RBFNNs obtained by the EP algorithm, and to other probabilistic classifiers, including different RBFNN design methods [e.g., relaxed variable kernel density estimation, support vector machines, a sparse classifier (sparse multinomial logistic regression)] and a procedure similar to SLIRBF but using product unit basis functions. The SLIRBF models are found to be competitive when compared with the corresponding multilogistic regression methods and the RBFEP method. A measure of statistical significance is used, which indicates that SLIRBF reaches the state of the art.
