However, most of existing feature selection methods are serial and inefficient to be applied to massive text data sets. In this case, a feature selection method based on parallel collaborative evolutionary genetic algorithm is presented. The presented method uses genetic algorithm to select feature subsets and takes advantage of parallel collaborative evolution to enhance time efficiency, so it can quickly acquire the feature subsets which are more representative. The experimental results show that, for accuracy ratio and recall ratio, the presented method is better than information gain, x2 statistics, and mutual information methods; the consumed time of the presented method with only one CPU is inferior to that of these three methods, but the presented method is supe rior after using the parallel strategy.展开更多

We solve the problem of the optimal distribution of a set ofinstructions on available processors. We propose a genetic algorithm to parallelize computations, using evolution to search the solution space. The stagesof our proposed genetic algorithm are: The choice of the initial populationand its representation in chromosomes, the crossover, and the mutation operations customized to the problem being dealt with. In this paper, geneticalgorithms are applied to the entire search space of the parallelization ofthe program instructions problem. This problem is NP-complete, so thereare no polynomial algorithms that can scan the solution space and solve theproblem. The genetic algorithm-based method is general and it is simple andefficient to implement because it can be scaled to a larger or smaller number ofinstructions that must be parallelized. The parallelization technique proposedin this paper was developed in the C# programming language, and our resultsconfirm the effectiveness of our parallelization method. Experimental resultsobtained and presented for different working scenarios confirm the theoreticalresults, and they provide insight on how to improve the exploration of a searchspace that is too large to be searched exhaustively.展开更多
