چکیده

Feature selection plays an important role in pattern classification. In this paper, we present an improved Branch and Bound algorithm for optimal feature subset selection. This algorithm searches for an optimal solution in a large solution tree in an efficient manner by cutting unnecessary paths which are guaranteed not to contain the optimal solution. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the new algorithm.

An Improved Flower Pollination Algorithm with AdaBoost Algorithm for Feature Selection in Text Documents Classification

In recent years, production of text documents has seen an exponential growth, which is the reason why their proper classification seems necessary for better access. One of the main problems of classifying text documents is working in high-dimensional feature space. Feature Selection (FS) is one of the ways to reduce the number of text attributes. So, working with a great bulk of the feature spa...

An Improved K-Nearest Neighbor with Crow Search Algorithm for Feature Selection in Text Documents Classification

The Internet provides easy access to a kind of library resources. However, classification of documents from a large amount of data is still an issue and demands time and energy to find certain documents. Classification of similar documents in specific classes of data can reduce the time for searching the required data, particularly text documents. This is further facilitated by using Artificial...

A Novel Approach to Feature Selection Using PageRank algorithm for Web Page Classification

In this paper, a novel filter-based approach is proposed using the PageRank algorithm to select the optimal subset of features as well as to compute their weights for web page classification. To evaluate the proposed approach multiple experiments are performed using accuracy score as the main criterion on four different datasets, namely WebKB, Reuters-R8, Reuters-R52, and 20NewsGroups. By analy...
