Abstract
As a new intelligent optimization method, brain storm optimization
(BSO) algorithm has been widely concerned for its advantages in solving
classical optimization problems. Recently, an evolutionary classification
optimization model based on BSO algorithm has been proposed, which proves its
effectiveness in solving the classification problem. However, BSO algorithm
also has defects. For example, large-scale datasets make the structure of the
model complex, which affects its classification performance. In addition, in the
process of optimization, the information of the dominant solution cannot be well
preserved in BSO, which leads to its limitations in classification performance.
Moreover, its generation strategy is inefficient in solving a variety of complex
practical problems. Therefore, we briefly introduce the optimization model
structure by feature selection. Besides, this paper retains the brainstorming
process of BSO algorithm, and embeds the new generation strategy into BSO
algorithm. Through the three generation methods of global optimal, local optimal
and nearest neighbor, we can better retain the information of the dominant
solution and improve the search efficiency. To verify the performance of the
proposed generation strategy in solving the classification problem, twelve
datasets are used in experiment. Experimental results show that the new
generation strategy can improve the performance of BSO algorithm in solving
classification problems.
