GENETIC ALGORITHM

Genetic Algorithms are search and optimisation algorithms that are based on theory of evolution. It is a derivative free, random approach that aims that finding the optimal value. Here we are using Genetic Algorithm to find the top N features in a dataset.

Dataset Used

Breast Cancer Wisconsic(Diagnostic) Dataset(https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Breast+Cancer+Wisconsin+%28Diagnostic%29)

Fitness Function

Cross validation F1 score from a MLPClassifier() model trained on the solution subset.

Stopping Criteria

Upper limit on the variance of fitness values in a population
