Gravitational search algorithm for feature selection in intrusion detection system

This project was carried out to use the Gravitational Search Algorithm for feature selection in IDS to selectively choose significant features which represents categories of network such as DoS, Probe, U2R and R2L and to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of feature selection and to have better...
