It is well known that for any sort of evolutionary search we must represent the problem solution in a suitable manner since the choice of representation has a large impact on the type and efficiency of the evolutionary search procedure applied. Usually in evolutionary design applications either bit strings or real number parameters are used to encode the problem. However, during the initial des...

Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) combined with feature ranking is an effective technique for eliminating irrelevant features when the feature dimension is large, but it is difficult to distinguish between relevant and redundant features. The usual method of determining when to stop eliminating features is based on either a validation set or cross-validation techniques. In this paper, we pres...
