Optimal Feature

The traditional motivation behind feature selection algorithms is to find the best subset of features for a task using one particular learning algorithm. However, it has been often found that no single classifier is entirely satisfactory for a particular task. Therefore, how to further improve the performance of these single systems on the basis of the previous optimal feature subset is a very important issue.We investigate the notion of optimal feature selection and present a practical feature selection approach that is based on an optimal feature subset of a single CAD system, which is referred to as a multilevel optimal feature selection method (MOFS) in this paper. Through MOFS, we select the different optimal feature subsets in order to eliminate features that are redundant or irrelevant and obtain optimal features.

The Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) classifier is a widely used ensemble learning framework, and it can get good classification results on general datasets. However, it is challenging to apply the AdaBoost classifier directly to pulmonary nodule detection of labeled and unlabeled lung CT images since there are still some drawbacks to ensemble learning method. Therefore, to solve the labeled and unlabeled data classification problem, the semi-supervised AdaBoost classifier using an improved sparrow search algorithm (AdaBoost-ISSA-S4VM) was established. Firstly, AdaBoost classifier is used to construct a strong semi-supervised classifier using several weak classifiers S4VM (AdaBoost-S4VM). Next, in order to solve the accuracy problem of AdaBoost-S4VM, sparrow search algorithm (SSA) is introduced in the AdaBoost classifier and S4VM. Then, sine cosine algorithm and new labor cooperation structure are adopted to increase the global optimal solution and convergence performance of sparrow search algorithm, respectively. Furthermore, based on the improved sparrow search algorithm and adaptive boosting classifier, the AdaBoost-S4VM classifier is improved. Finally, the effective improved AdaBoost-ISSA-S4VM classification model was developed for actual pulmonary nodule detection based on the publicly available LIDC-IDRI database. The experimental results have proved that the established AdaBoost-ISSA-S4VM classification model has good performance on labeled and unlabeled lung CT images.

Power quality disturbance (PQD) is an important issue in electrical distribution systems that needs to be detected promptly and identified to prevent the degradation of system reliability. This work proposes a PQD classification using a novel algorithm, comprised of the artificial bee colony (ABC) and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms, called “adaptive ABC-PSO” as the feature selection algorithm. The proposed adaptive technique is applied to a combination of ABC and PSO algorithms, and then used as the feature selection algorithm. A discrete wavelet transform is used as the feature extraction method, and a probabilistic neural network is used as the classifier. We found that the highest classification accuracy (99.31%) could be achieved through nine optimally selected features out of all 72 extracted features. Moreover, the proposed PQD classification system demonstrated high performance in a noisy environment, as well as the real distribution system. When comparing the presented PQD classification system’s performance to previous studies, PQD classification accuracy using adaptive ABC-PSO as the optimal feature selection algorithm is considered to be at a high-range scale; therefore, the adaptive ABC-PSO algorithm can be used to classify the PQD in a practical electrical distribution system.
