Popis: Abstract Feature selection is a hot problem in machine learning. Swarm intelligence algorithms play an essential role in feature selection due to their excellent optimisation ability. The Chimp Optimisation Algorithm (CHoA) is a new type of swarm intelligence algorithm. It has quickly won widespread attention in the academic community due to its fast convergence speed and easy implementation. However, CHoA has specific challenges in balancing local and global search, limiting its optimisation accuracy and leading to premature convergence, thus affecting the algorithm’s performance on feature selection tasks. This study proposes Social coevolution and Sine chaotic opposition learning Chimp Optimization Algorithm (SOSCHoA). SOSCHoA enhances inter-population interaction through social coevolution, improving local search. Additionally, it introduces sine chaotic opposition learning to increase population diversity and prevent local optima. Extensive experiments on 12 high-dimensional classification datasets demonstrate that SOSCHoA outperforms existing algorithms in classification accuracy, convergence, and stability. Although SOSCHoA shows advantages in handling high-dimensional datasets, there is room for future research and optimization, particularly concerning feature dimensionality reduction.
