“…On the other hand, the metaheuristics used to solve the problem are the common aspects studied in the mentioned reviews. The authors address the binarization of metaheuristics in [4][5][6]10]. For example, in [5], the authors detail whether the metaheuristics were binarized or modified with chaotic maps.…”

“…The authors address the binarization of metaheuristics in [4][5][6]10]. For example, in [5], the authors detail whether the metaheuristics were binarized or modified with chaotic maps. In addition, different classifications based on behavior, hybridization, the main modifications carried out, and real-world applications, among others, are presented in [4][5][6]8,9,11,13].…”

In addition, different classifications based on behavior, hybridization, the main modifications carried out, and real-world applications, among others, are presented in [4][5][6]8,9,11,13]. Also, in investigations such as [3,[7][8][9]12,13], the authors indicate the contribution made by the metaheuristic to the field of feature selection.…”

“…Given the extensive number of investigations on the topic, many methods for solving the problem have emerged. Following the extensive related literature [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14], the solution methods for the feature selection problem can be classified as shown below:…”
