Many real-world problems are large in scale and hence difficult to address. Due to the large number of features in microarray datasets, feature selection and classification are even more challenging for such datasets. Not all of these numerous features contribute to the classification task, and some even impede performance. Through feature selection, a feature subset that contains only a small quantity of essential features can be generated to increase the classification accuracy and significantly reduce the time consumption. In this paper, we construct a multiobjective feature selection model that simultaneously considers the classification error, the feature number and the feature redundancy. For this model, we propose several distributed parallel algorithms based on different encodings and an adaptive strategy. Additionally, to reduce the time consumption, various tactics are employed, including a feature number …
