##wrapper–filter feature selection algorithm (WFFSA) using a memetic framework
WFFSA
Lamarckian learning
local improvement
Genetic operators
###A 编码表示与初始化
a chromosome is a binary string of length equal to the total number of features
randomly initialized
###B 目标函数
the classification accuracy
Sc — the corresponding selected feature subset encoded in chromosome c J(Sc) — criterion function
###C LS改进过程
domain knowledge and heuristics
filter ranking methods as memes or LS heuristics
three different filter ranking methods, namely:
ReliefF;
gain ratio;
chi-square.
based on different criteria:
Euclidean distance,
information entropy,
chi-square statistics
basic LS operators:
“Add”: select a feature from Y using the linear ranking selection and move it to X.
“Del”: select a feature from X using the linear ranking selection and move it to Y .
The intensity of LS — the LS length l and interval w
LS length l — the maximum number of Del and Add operations in each LS — l2 possible combinations of Add and Del operations
interval w — the w elite chromosomes in the population
until a local optimum or an improvement is reached
Improvement First Strategy: a random choice from the l2 combinations. stops once an improvement is obtained either in terms of classification accuracy or a reduction in the number of selected features without deterioration in accuracy greater than ε.
Greedy Strategy: carries out all possible l2 combinations — the best improved solution
Sequential Strategy: the Add operation searches for the most significant feature y in Y in a sequential manner; the Del operation searches for the least significant feature x from X in a sequential manner
Evolutionary Operators:
Computational Complexity:
The ranking of features based on the filter methods — linear time complexity — a one-time offline cost — negligible
the computational cost of a single fitness evaluation — the basic unit of computational cost
GA — O(pg): p — the size of population, g — the number of search generations
+improvement first strategy — O(pg+l2wg/2)
+the greedy strategy (l2w/p) — O(pg+l2wg)
+the sequential strategy ((2∣Y∣−l)l/2 and (2∣X∣+l)l/2 — Add and Del operations — nlw) — O(pg+nlwg) KaTeX parse error: Unexpected character: '' at position 8: n gg ̲ l — KaTeX parse error: Unexpected character: '' at position 8: nlw gg̲ l^2w > l^2w/2 — sequential LS strategy requires significantly more computations
