Comparative Study on Metaheuristic-Based Feature Selection for Cotton Foreign Fibers Recognition
Abstract
The excellent feature set or feature combination of cotton foreign fibers is great significant to improve the performance of machine-vision-based recognition system of cotton foreign fibers. To find the excellent feature sets of foreign fibers, in this paper presents three metaheuristic-based feature selection approaches for cotton foreign fibers recognition, which are particle swarm optimization, ant colony optimization and genetic algorithm, respectively. The k-nearest neighbor classifier and support vector machine classifier with k-fold cross validation are used to evaluate the quality of feature subset and identify the cotton foreign fibers. The results show that the metaheuristic-based feature selection methods can efficiently find the optimal feature sets consisting of a few features. It is highly significant to improve the performance of recognition system for cotton foreign fibers.
