A Soft Computing Based Approach Using Modified Selection Strategy for Feature Reduction of Medical Systems

الملخص EN

The systems consisting high input spaces require high processing times and memory usage.

Most of the attribute selection algorithms have the problems of input dimensions limits and information storage problems.

These problems are eliminated by means of developed feature reduction software using new modified selection mechanism with middle region solution candidates adding.

The hybrid system software is constructed for reducing the input attributes of the systems with large number of input variables.

The designed software also supports the roulette wheel selection mechanism.

Linear order crossover is used as the recombination operator.

In the genetic algorithm based soft computing methods, locking to the local solutions is also a problem which is eliminated by using developed software.

Faster and effective results are obtained in the test procedures.

Twelve input variables of the urological system have been reduced to the reducts (reduced input attributes) with seven, six, and five elements.

It can be seen from the obtained results that the developed software with modified selection has the advantages in the fields of memory allocation, execution time, classification accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity values when compared with the other reduction algorithms by using the urological test data.
