Feature selection is an important task for data analysis and information retrieval processing, pattern classification systems, and data mining applications. It reduces the number of features by removing noisy, irrelevant and redundant data. In this paper, a novel feature selection algorithm based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), called Advanced Binary ACO (ABACO), is presented. Features are tr...

We present a method to search for gravitational waves from coalescing supermassive binary black holes in LISA data. The search utilizes the F-statistic to maximize over, and determine the values of, the extrinsic parameters of the binary system. The intrinsic parameters are searched over hierarchically using stochastically generated multi-dimensional template banks to recover the masses and sky...
