Optimize by Generation (Evolutionary Aggregation)

Synopsis

A generating genetic algorithm for unsupervised learning (experimental).

Description

Performs an evolutionary feature aggregation. Each base feature is only allowed to be used as base feature, in one merged feature, or it may not be used at all.
