In this paper, we propose a new evolutionary-incremental framework for feature selection. The proposed framework can be applied on an ordinary evolutionary algorithm (EA) such as genetic algorithm (GA) or invasive weed optimization (IWO). This framework proposes some generic modifications on ordinary EAs to be compatible with the variable length of solutions. In this framework, the solutions related to the primary generations have short length. Then, the length of solutions may be increased through generations gradually. In addition, our evolutionary-incremental framework deploys two new operators called <jats:italic>addition<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>deletion<\/jats:italic> operators which change the length of solutions randomly. For evaluation of the proposed framework, we use that for feature selection in the application of face recognition. In this regard, we applied our feature selection method on a robust face recognition algorithm which is based on the extraction of Gabor coefficients. Experimental results show that our proposed evolutionary-incremental framework can select a few number of features from existing thousands features efficiently. Comparison result of the proposed methods with the previous methods shows that our framework is comprehensive, robust, and well-defined to apply on many EAs for feature selection.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/679847","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,25]],"date-time":"2014-11-25T21:01:21Z","timestamp":1416949281000},"page":"1-12","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A New Evolutionary-Incremental Framework for Feature Selection"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2014","author":[{"given":"Mohamad-Hoseyn","family":"Sigari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Vision Research Lab., Computer Engineering Department, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad 91779, Iran"},{"name":"Control and Intelligent Processing Center of Excellence (CIPCE), School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Tehran, Tehran 14399, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Muhammad-Reza","family":"Pourshahabi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Vision Research Lab., Computer Engineering Department, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad 91779, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hamid-Reza","family":"Pourreza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Vision Research Lab., Computer Engineering Department, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad 91779, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"key":"1","year":"2009"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1214\/aos\/1176346150"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.compeleceng.2013.11.024"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TPAMI.2012.197"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1023\/A:1008363719778"},{"key":"6","year":"1975"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1672-6529(11)60020-6"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/241517"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/831691"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ecoinf.2006.07.003"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/34.598235"},{"issue":"11","key":"16","first-page":"121","volume":"7","year":"2007","journal-title":"International Journal of Computer Science and Network Security"},{"key":"17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/863146"}],"container-title":["Advances in Artificial Intelligence"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/archive\/2014\/679847.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/archive\/2014\/679847.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/archive\/2014\/679847.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,9]],"date-time":"2020-12-09T19:20:04Z","timestamp":1607541604000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/aai\/2014\/679847\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,25]]},"references-count":13,"alternative-id":["679847","679847"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2014\/679847","relation":{},"ISSN":["1687-7470","1687-7489"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1687-7470","type":"print"},{"value":"1687-7489","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,11,25]]}}}
