A novel community detection based genetic algorithm for feature selection

Abstract: The feature selection is an essential data preprocessing stage in data mining. The core principle of feature selection seems to be to pick a subset of possible features by excluding features with almost no predictive information as well as highly associated redundant features. In the past several years, a variety of meta-heuristic methods were introduced to eliminate redundant and irrelevant features as much as possible from high-dimensional datasets. Among the main disadvantages of present meta-heuristic base… Show more

“…Based on these, a new method of feature selection approaches utilizing the similarity matrices and strength. Rostami et al [ 16 ] had presented a genetic algorithm that depends on community detection for feature selection. The developed model has performed the feature selection based on utilizing three phases.…”

“…The method seeks to maximize modularity function. In [126], Rostami et al developed a new CD based on GA for feature selection. The method consists of three steps: the features are computed and selected, then these features are clustered; finally select the best clustering by GA.…”

“…In other words, in many of medical and microarray datasets, it is possible that many genes are irrelevant or redundant for machine learning algorithm [29][30][31][32]. Feature selection or gene selection is a popular and powerful approach in medical datasets to overcome this shortcoming [33][34][35]. In gene selection, to decrease the microarray data dimensions, by eliminating the irrelevant and similar genes, only a subset of relevant and dissimilar genes that are strongly related to the objective function are selected [36].…”
