These basically find the solution space very efficiently, often without utilizing the gradientinformation, and are inspired by the bio-inspired and socially motivated heuristics. Metaheuristic optimizationalgorithms are increasingly applied to complex feature selection problems in high-dimensional medical datasets.Among these, Teaching-Learning-Based optimization (TLBO) has proven effective for continuous design tasks bybalancing exploration and exploitation phases. However, its binary version (BTLBO) suffers from limited exploitationability, often converging prematurely or getting trapped in local optima, particularly when applied to discrete featureselection tasks. Previous studies reported that BTLBO yields lower classification accuracy and higher feature subsetvariance compared to other hybrid methods in benchmark tests, motivating the development of hybrid approaches.This study proposes a novel hybrid algorithm, BTLBO-Cheetah Optimizer (BTLBO-CO), which integrates the globalexploration strength of BTLBO with the local exploitation efficiency of the Cheetah Optimization (CO) algorithm. Theobjective is to enhance the feature selection process for cancer classification tasks involving high-dimensional data. Theproposed BTLBO-CO algorithm was evaluated on six benchmark cancer datasets: 11 tumors (T), Lung Cancer (LUC),Leukemia (LEU), Small Round Blue Cell Tumor or SRBCT (SR), Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma or DLBCL (DL), andProstate Tumor (PT).The results demonstrate superior classification accuracy across all six datasets, achieving 93.71%,96.12%, 98.13%, 97.11%, 98.44%, and 98.84%, respectively.These results validate the effectiveness of the hybrid approachin addressing diverse feature selection challenges using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier.展开更多
