Abstract

A framework of Genetic Algorithm-Support Vector Machine (GA-SVM) is proposed for SVM parameters (model) selection, and clustering algorithm is also integrated with the framework to generate multiple optimal models, as well as being condition of convergence for GA. Moreover, an ensemble method on various SVM models assisted by TRUST-TECH methodology is put forward, to enhance the generalization ability of a single SVM model. The performance of GA-SVM and ensemble method is testified by applying them in both classification and regression problems. Results show that, comparing with traditional parameters selection method (such as grid search), the proposed GA-SVM framework and ensemble strategy can solve general classification and regression issues more efficiently and automatically with better performance.
