Rough Sets Hybridization with Mayfly Optimization for燚imensionality燫eduction

Abstract

Big data is a vast amount of structured and unstructured data that must be dealt with on a regular basis. Dimensionality reduction is the process of converting a huge set of data into data with tiny dimensions so that equal information may be expressed easily. These tactics are frequently utilized to improve classification or regression challenges while dealing with machine learning issues. To achieve dimensionality reduction for huge data sets, this paper offers a hybrid particle swarm optimization-rough set PSO-RS and Mayfly algorithm-rough set MA-RS. A novel hybrid strategy based on the Mayfly algorithm (MA) and the rough set (RS) is proposed in particular. The performance of the novel hybrid algorithm MA-RS is evaluated by solving six different data sets from the literature. The simulation results and comparison with common reduction methods demonstrate the proposed MA-RS algorithm’s capacity to handle a wide range of data sets. Finally, the rough set approach, as well as the hybrid optimization techniques PSO-RS and MA-RS, were applied to deal with the massive data problem. MA-hybrid RS’s method beats other classic dimensionality reduction techniques, according to the experimental results and statistical testing studies.
