This study presents a specialized genetic algorithm for effective feature selection at a large scale, focusing on the challenges of high-dimensional data. By introducing an innovative method called Speciated Genetic Algorithm for Neural Networks (SGANN), the authors improve the genetic operations of crossover and mutation while incorporating fitness sharing to enhance speciation. The proposed approach addresses the neighborhood density and enables the handling of chromosomes containing up to 25 genes for efficient feature extraction. Published in Pattern Recognition Letters, this work showcases a significant advance in machine learning methodologies.
