public class Stacking extends RandomizableMultipleClassifiersCombiner implements TechnicalInformationHandler
@article{Wolpert1992, author = {David H. Wolpert}, journal = {Neural Networks}, pages = {241-259}, publisher = {Pergamon Press}, title = {Stacked generalization}, volume = {5}, year = {1992} }Valid options are:
-M <scheme specification> Full name of meta classifier, followed by options. (default: "weka.classifiers.rules.Zero")
-X <number of folds> Sets the number of cross-validation folds.
-S <num> Random number seed. (default 1)
-B <classifier specification> Full class name of classifier to include, followed by scheme options. May be specified multiple times. (default: "weka.classifiers.rules.ZeroR")
-D If set, classifier is run in debug mode and may output additional info to the console
