Novel Hybrid Genetic Arithmetic Optimization for Feature Selection and Classification of Pulmonary Disease Images

The difficulty in predicting early cancer is due to the lack of early illness indicators. Metaheuristic approaches are a family of algorithms that seek to find the optimal values for uncertain problems with several implications in optimization and classification problems. An automated system for recognizing illnesses can respond with accuracy, efficiency, and speed, helping medical professionals spot abnormalities and lowering death rates. This study proposes the Novel Hybrid GAO (Genetic Arithmetic Optimization algorithm based Feature Selection) (Genetic Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm-based feature selection) method as a way to choose the features for several machine learning algorithms to classify readily available data on COVID-19 and lung cancer. By choosing just important features, feature selection approaches might improve performance. The proposed approach employs a Genetic and Arithmetic Optimization to enhance the outcomes in an optimization approach.
