Abstract
In the data mining and machine learning (ML) discipline, feature selection problem is considered among many researchers in the recent times. Feature selection process targets to minimize feature set number and maximize performance accuracy by identifying optimal features. Multiple objectives are considered while identifying the optimal feature hence multi-objective metaheuristic optimization algorithms (MOMOAs) are applied. In this study, literature review is performed MOMOAs-for solving wrapper feature selection problem (WFS). The literature review for solving WFS problem and discuss the challenges faced by the researchers in solving the feature selection problem. The literature review is performed on all relevant studies published in the last 12 years [2009-2022]. A detailed overview of the feature selection preliminaries, MOMOAs-WFS, role of the classifier in feature selection problem are presented. The outcome of this literature review is to highlight the existing works related to WFS problem using MOMOAs. Finally, the research areas for improvement are identified and emphasized for the scientists to survey in the field of MOMOAs.
