Efficient Hybrid Nature-Inspired Binary Optimizers for Feature Selection

TL;DR: An enhanced hybrid metaheuristic approach using grey wolf optimizer and whale optimization algorithm to develop a wrapper-based feature selection method that outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches, significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Comparison between Regression, Artificial Neural Networks and Support Vector Machines for Predicting Stock Market Index

TL;DR: This paper explores the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) to build prediction models for the S&P 500 stock index and shows how traditional models such as multiple linear regression (MLR) behave in this case.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolving Support Vector Machines using Whale Optimization Algorithm for spam profiles detection on online social networks in different lingual contexts

TL;DR: A hybrid machine learning model based on Support Vector Machines and one of the recent metaheuristic algorithms called Whale Optimization Algorithm is proposed for the task of identifying spammers in online social networks and provides very challenging results in terms of precision, recall, f-measure and AUC.
Book ChapterDOI

Salp swarm algorithm: Theory, literature review, and application in extreme learning machines

TL;DR: The application of SSA in optimizing the Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is investigated to improve its accuracy and overcome the shortcomings of its conventional training method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Training radial basis function networks using biogeography-based optimizer

TL;DR: The results show that the biogeography-based optimizer trainer is able to substantially outperform the current training algorithms on all datasets in terms of classification accuracy, speed of convergence, and entrapment in local optima.
