Appropriately selected features can not only reduce the complexity of the mining or learning process, but also improve the accuracy of results. In the past, the concept of performing the task of feature selection by attribute clustering was proposed. If similar attributes could be clustered into groups, attributes could be easily replaced by others in the same group when some attribute values were missed. Hong et al. also proposed several genetic algorithms for finding appropriate attribute clusters. Their approaches, however, suffered from the weakness that multiple chromosomes would represent the same attribute clustering result (feasible solution) due to the combinatorial property, thus causing a larger search space than needed. In this thesis, we thus attempt to improve the performance of the GA-based attribute-clustering process based on the grouping genetic algorithm (GGA). Two GGA-based attribute clustering approaches are proposed. In the first approach, the general GGA representation and operators are used to reduce the redundancy of chromosome representation for attribute clustering. In the second approach, a new encoding scheme with corresponding crossover and mutation operators are designed, and an improved fitness function is proposed to achieve better convergence speed and provide more flexible alternatives than the first one. At last, experiments are made to compare the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed approaches and the previous ones. Tzung-Pei Hong 洪宗貝 2011 學位論文 ; thesis 78 en_US |
