Abstract

This paper introduces a simple strategy for diagnosing disease, which is called improved gray wolf optimization (IGWO) and ensemble classification. The proposed strategy consists of two sequential phases, which are; (i) Feature Selection Phase (FSP) and (ii) Ensemble Classification Phase (ECP). During the former, the most effective features for diagnosing disease are selected, while during the latter, the actual diagnosis takes place depending on voting of five different classifiers. The main contribution of this paper is a suggested modification for the traditional Gray Wolf Optimization (GWO), which is called Improved Gray Wolf Optimization (IGWO). As an optimization technique, the proposed IGWO is employed in the FSP for selecting the effective features. For evaluating, IGWO has been implemented using recent feature selection techniques as well as the proposed method. To accomplish the classification phase; ensemble classification has been used which uses several classification techniques such as; Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Deep Neural Network (DNN), Decision Tree (DT), and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). Ensemble classification integrate several classifiers for improving prediction performance. Experimental results have shown that employing IGWO promotes the performance of the diagnosing strategy of different diseases in terms of precision, recall, and accuracy.
