Description

Feature selection is a popular pre-processing technique applied to enhance the learning performances of machine learning models by removing irrelevant features without compromising their accuracies. The rapid growth of input features in big data era has increased the complexities of feature selection problems tremendously. Given their excellent global search ability, differential evolution (DE) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are considered as the promising techniques used to solve feature selection problems. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm is proposed to solve feature selection problems more effectively by leveraging the strengths of both DE and PSO. The proposed feature selection algorithm is reported to achieve an average accuracy of 89.03% when solving 7 datasets obtained from UCI Machine Learning Repository.
