Optimization of Machine Learning Techniques on Autism Spectrum Disorder with Swarm Intelligence Based Feature Selection

Abstract

This paper is a study on the various machine learning algorithms in order to perform ASD (Autism spectrum Disorder) as per the DSM-V standards. ASD occurs more frequently among children and in order to diagnose this with better accuracy, the study on binary firefly algorithm, a swarm intelligence based wrapper feature selection algorithm is used to obtain best results with optimum feature subsets. This paper will provide overall result after applying it to all types of machine learning models on supervised learning.
