A Multi-Objective Unsupervised Feature Selection using Genetic Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
Data mining is related to large number of databases. Dealing with such large number of datasets may create some obstacles. Such problems can be avoided by using feature selection Technique. Feature selection Technique is a method which selects an optimal subset from original feature set. The implementation is done by removing repetitive features. The underlying structure has been neglected by the previous feature selection method and it determines the feature separately. The group feature selection method for the group structure may be formulated. It performs the task for filtering purpose for group structure technique. Group feature selection improves accuracy and may achieve relatively better classification performance.

Feature Selection Using Multi Objective Genetic Algorithm with Support Vector Machine
Different approaches have been proposed for feature selection to obtain suitable features subset among all features. These methods search feature space for feature subsets which satisfies some criteria or optimizes several objective functions. The objective functions are divided into two main groups: filter and wrapper methods. In filter methods, features subsets are selected due to some measu...
متن کاملAn optimization technique for vendor selection with quantity discounts using Genetic Algorithm
Vendor selection decisions are complicated by the fact that various conflicting multi-objective factors must be considered in the decision making process. The problem of vendor selection becomes still more compli-cated with the inclusion of incremental discount pricing schedule. Such hard combinatorial problems when solved using meta heuristics produce near optimal solutions. This paper propose...
متن کاملFeature Selection for Ensembles Using the Multi-Objective Optimization Approach
Feature selection for ensembles has shown to be an effective strategy for ensemble creation due to its ability of producing good subsets of features, which make the classifiers of the ensemble disagree on difficult cases. In this paper we present an ensemble feature selection approach based on a hierarchical multi-objective genetic algorithm. The underpinning paradigm is the “overproduce and ch...

In this paper a methodology for feature selection in unsupervised learning is proposed. It makes use of a multiobjective genetic algorithm where the minimization of the number of features and a validity index that measures the quality of clusters have been used to guide the search towards the more discriminant features and the best number of clusters. The proposed strategy is evaluated using tw...
