Abstract—Many research studies have investigated ensemble learning. However, these research studies proposed an approach for improving the ensemble learning. We propose the efficiency method using probability weight as a support to the classifier model called the probability-weighted voting ensemble learning, which computes its own probability computation for each model from the training data. This research has tested the proposed model with 5 UCI data sets in various dimensions and generated four models, the 3PW-Ensemble model, the 4PW-Ensemble model, the 5PW-Ensemble model, and the 6PW-Ensemble model. The experimental results of the study yield the highest accuracy. Considering the comparison of efficiency, the accuracy of the proposed model was higher than those of the based classification models and the other ensemble models.
