AbstractClassX is a project aimed at creating an automated system to classify X-ray sources and is envisaged as a prototype of the Virtual Observatory. As a system, ClassX integrates into a pipeline a network of classifiers and an engine that searches and retrieves for a given target multi-wavelength counterparts from the worldwide data storage media. It applies machine learning methods to `train’ different classifiers using different `training’ data sets. In ClassX, each classifier can make its own class (object type) assignment and is optimized for handling different tasks and/or different object types. A user would generally select a certain classifier to make, for instance, a most complete list of candidate QSOs, but a different classifier would be used to make a most reliable list of candidate QSOs. Still different classifiers would be selected to make similar lists for other object types. Along with the class name assignment, a network classifier outputs the probability for a source to belong to the assigned class as well as probabilities that the source belongs in fact to other classes. We illustrate the current capabilities of ClassX and the concept of a classifiers network with the results obtained with classifiers trained using ROSAT data. ~
