abstract = "Transfer learning has been studied in document
classification for transferring a model trained from a
source domain (SD) to a relatively similar target
domain (TD). In feature-based transfer learning
techniques, there is an investigation on the features
being transferred from SD to TD. This paper conducts an
investigation on an output-based transfer learning
system using Genetic Programming (GP) in document
classification tasks, which automatically selects
features to construct classifiers. The proposed GP
system directly generates programs from a set of sparse
features and only considers the output change of the
evolved programs from SD to TD. A linear model is then
used to combine existing GP programs from SD as
features to TD. Also, new GP programs are mutated from
the programs evolved in SD to improve the accuracy. Via
directly using the evolved GP programs and their
mutations, the feature extraction and estimation
processes on TD are avoided. The results for the
experiments demonstrates that the GP programs from SD
can be effectively used for classifying documents in
the relevant TD. The results also show that it is easy
to train effective classifiers on TD when the GP
programs are used as features. Furthermore, the
proposed linear model, using multiple GP programs from
SD as its inputs, outperforms single GP programs which
are directly obtained from TD",
