    Multi-Strategy Assisted Multi-Objective Whale Optimization Algorithm for Feature Selection

    Deng Yang1, Chong Zhou1,*, Xuemeng Wei2, Zhikun Chen3, Zheng Zhang4

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.140, No.2, pp. 1563-1593, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2024.048049 - 20 May 2024

    Abstract In classification problems, datasets often contain a large amount of features, but not all of them are relevant for accurate classification. In fact, irrelevant features may even hinder classification accuracy. Feature selection aims to alleviate this issue by minimizing the number of features in the subset while simultaneously minimizing the classification error rate. Single-objective optimization approaches employ an evaluation function designed as an aggregate function with a parameter, but the results obtained depend on the value of the parameter. To eliminate this parameter’s influence, the problem can be reformulated as a multi-objective optimization problem. The… More >

    Abstract With the advancement of wireless network technology, vast amounts of traffic have been generated, and malicious traffic attacks that threaten the network environment are becoming increasingly sophisticated. While signature-based detection methods, static analysis, and dynamic analysis techniques have been previously explored for malicious traffic detection, they have limitations in identifying diversified malware traffic patterns. Recent research has been focused on the application of machine learning to detect these patterns. However, applying machine learning to lightweight devices like IoT devices is challenging because of the high computational demands and complexity involved in the learning process. In… More >

    Abstract Radiomics is a non-invasive method for extracting quantitative and higher-dimensional features from medical images for diagnosis. It has received great attention due to its huge application prospects in recent years. We can know that the number of features selected by the existing radiomics feature selection methods is basically about ten. In this paper, a heuristic feature selection method based on frequency iteration and multiple supervised training mode is proposed. Based on the combination between features, it decomposes all features layer by layer to select the optimal features for each layer, then fuses the optimal features More >

    Abstract Online Signature Verification (OSV), as a personal identification technology, is widely used in various industries. However, it faces challenges, such as incomplete feature extraction, low accuracy, and computational heaviness. To address these issues, we propose a novel approach for online signature verification, using a one-dimensional Ghost-ACmix Residual Network (1D-ACGRNet), which is a Ghost-ACmix Residual Network that combines convolution with a self-attention mechanism and performs improvement by using Ghost method. The Ghost-ACmix Residual structure is introduced to leverage both self-attention and convolution mechanisms for capturing global feature information and extracting local information, effectively complementing whole and… More >

    Enhancing Cancer Classification through a Hybrid Bio-Inspired Evolutionary Algorithm for Biomarker Gene Selection

    Hala AlShamlan*, Halah AlMazrua*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.79, No.1, pp. 675-694, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048146 - 25 April 2024

    Abstract In this study, our aim is to address the problem of gene selection by proposing a hybrid bio-inspired evolutionary algorithm that combines Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) with Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) for feature selection. The motivation for utilizing GWO and HHO stems from their bio-inspired nature and their demonstrated success in optimization problems. We aim to leverage the strengths of these algorithms to enhance the effectiveness of feature selection in microarray-based cancer classification. We selected leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) to evaluate the performance of both two widely used classifiers, k-nearest neighbors (KNN) and support vector machine… More >

    Abstract Network traffic identification is critical for maintaining network security and further meeting various demands of network applications. However, network traffic data typically possesses high dimensionality and complexity, leading to practical problems in traffic identification data analytics. Since the original Dung Beetle Optimizer (DBO) algorithm, Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm, Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm have the shortcomings of slow convergence and easily fall into the local optimal solution, an Improved Dung Beetle Optimizer (IDBO) algorithm is proposed for network traffic identification. Firstly, the Sobol sequence is utilized to initialize the… More >
