A novel hierarchical selective ensemble classifier with bioinformatics application

作者:

Highlights:

• Feature selection is based on parallel optimization and hierarchical selection.

• Maximize the sum of relevance and distance solves problem of high dimensionality.

• A multi-class problem can be transformed into a binary classification problem.

• Ensemble combination method based on divide-and-conquer strategy is efficient.

• Solving bioinformatics problems with high-level performance can be achieved.
