Software project management is one of the significant activates in the software development process. Software Development Effort Estimation (SDEE) is a challenging task in the software project management. SDEE is an old activity in computer industry from 1940s and has been reviewed several times. A SDEE model is appropriate if it provides the accuracy and confidence simultaneously before softwa...

With the fast increase of the documents, using Text Document Classification (TDC) methods has become a crucial matter. This paper presented a hybrid model of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Naive Bayes (NB) classifier (IWO-NB) for Feature Selection (FS) in order to reduce the big size of features space in TDC. TDC includes different actions such as text processing, feature extraction, form...

Feature selection benefits machine learning and knowledge acquisition, it usually resorts to various intelligent methodologies. Fuzzy rough sets act as a powerful platform of processing, they have introduced divergence measures generate an effective method feature selection, called FS-DD. However, Algorithm FS-DD still has advancement space, because its underlying dependency degree with absolut...

We propose probabilistic framework for analysis of inaccuracies due to feature selection (FS) when flawed estimates of performance of feature subsets are utilized. The approach is based on analysis of random search FS procedure and postulation that joint distribution of true and estimated classification errors is known a priori. We derive expected values for the FS bias, a difference between ac...

Introduction: Mental arithmetic analysis based on Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal for monitoring the state of the user’s brain functioning can be helpful for understanding some psychological disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, or dyscalculia where the difficulty in learning or understanding the arithmetic exists. Most mental arithmetic recogni...

The right and left hand Motor Imagery (MI) analysis based on the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal can directly link the central nervous system to a computer or a device. This study aims to identify a set of robust and nonlinear effective brain connectivity features quantified by transfer entropy (TE) to characterize the relationship between brain regions from EEG signals and create a hierarchi...

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...

Classification technique can solve several problems in different fields like medicine, industry, business, science. Noise random error or variance in a measured variable.Reduction is one of the most popular techniques to remove noisy data. Two reduction technique are used for it (FS) Feature Selection and (FE) Feature Extraction. Feature Selection (FS) is a solution that involves finding a subs...
