Instance Selection Using Evolutionary Algorithms: An Experimental Study

Abstract |
In this chapter, we carry out an empirical study of the performance of four representative evolutionary algorithm models considering two instance-selection perspectives, the prototype selection and the training set selection for data reduction in knowledge discovery. This study includes a comparison between these algorithms and other nonevolutionary instance-selection algorithms. The results show that the evolutionary instance-selection algorithms consistently outperform the nonevolutionary ones, offering two main advantages simultaneously, better instance-reduction rates and higher classification accuracy. |
