Abstract
In the real life applications, large amounts of variables have been accumulated quickly. Selection of variables is a very useful tool for improving the prediction accuracy by identifying the most relative variables that related to the study. Gamma regression model is one of the most models that applied in several science fields. Gray Wolf optimization algorithm (GWO) is one of the proposed nature-inspired algorithms that can efficiently be employed for variable selection. In this paper, chaotic GWO is proposed to perform variable selection for gamma regression model. The simulation studies and a real data application are used to evaluate the performance of our proposed procedure in terms of prediction accuracy and variable selection criteria. The obtained results demonstrated the efficiency of our proposed methods comparing with other popular methods.
