“…Step 1: generate the initial population at random. Each seed of the population represents a task-ofoading scheme and contains 2N + 1 random numbers, which are greater than 0 and less than or equal to E. For example, if N is 3 and E is 7, a scheme composed of [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], means that S(1), S(2), and S(3) are, respectively, assigned to X(1), X(2), and X(3) at the data preprocessing step and are, respectively, assigned to X(4), X(5), and X(6) at the feature extraction step and are assigned to X (7) at the data fusion step.…”
