In this paper we consider the combination of two ensemble techniques, both capable of producing diverse binary base classifiers. Adaboost, a version of Boosting is combined with Output Coding for solving multiclass problems. Decision trees are chosen as the base classifiers, and the issue of tree pruning is addressed. Pruning produces less complex trees and sometimes leads to better generalisation. Experimental results demonstrate that pruning makes little difference in this framework. However, on average over nine benchmark datasets better accuracy is achieved by incorporating unpruned trees.
