Aim of the feature selection process is to find the best features which can represent the dataset by narrowing the feature space optimally. This study proposes a new hybrid method which combines Artificial Bee Colony and Differential Evolution algorithms for feature selection problem of classification tasks. The proposed algorithm was tested using decision tree classifier (J48) on UCI datasets. The experimental results show that the new hybrid method reduces the number of features by not decreasing or least decreasing the classification performance and therefore the time which it takes for classification of new instances decreases as well

NITELIK SEÇME PROBLEMI IÇIN DIFERANSIYEL GELIŞIM ALGORITMASI VE YAPAY ARI KOLONISI OPTIMIZASYON TEKNIĞINI KULLANAN MELEZ YÖNTEM

Öz

Nitelik seçme işlemi ile özellik uzayı optimum şekilde daraltılarak veri kümesini en iyi
şekilde temsil edebilecek niteliklerin bulunması amaçlanır. Bu çalışma sınıflandırma işlemleri
üzerinde nitelik seçme problemi için Yapay Arı Kolonisi optimizasyon tekniği ve Diferansiyel
Gelişim algoritmasını birleştirerek yeni bir melez yöntem önermektedir. Önerilen algoritma
UCI veri kümeleri üzerinde karar ağacı sınıflandırıcısı (J48) kullanılarak test edilmiştir.
Deneysel sonuçlar yeni melez yöntemin sınıflandırma işleminin doğruluğunu düşürmeden ya
da en az seviyede düşürerek nitelik sayısını azalttığını ve dolayısıyla yeni örneklerin
sınıflandırılması için gereken sürenin de azaldığını göstermiştir.
