Bird’s Eye View feature selection for high-dimensional data by Samir Brahim Belhaouari (16855434)

“…This approach is inspired by the natural world, where a bird searches for important features in a sparse dataset, similar to how a bird search for sustenance in a sprawling jungle. BEV incorporates elements of Evolutionary Algorithms with a Genetic Algorithm to maintain a population of top-performing agents, Dynamic Markov Chain to steer the movement of agents in the search space, and Reinforcement Learning to reward and penalize agents based on their progress. …”
