A Novel Community Detection Based Genetic Algorithm for Feature Selection

Abstract: The selection of features 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 … Show more

“…Huang et al [22] carried out a survey on techniques of community detection in multilayer networks. Rostami et al [23] presented a genetic algorithm for feature selection that is based on a novel community detection, Li et al [24] proposed the convex relaxation techniques for community detection, and Joo et al [25] utilized the community detection for studying the stream gauge network grouping. e modularity is employed to reflect the fraction of edges using the communities related to the amount of edges developed using communities.…”

“…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].…”
