Recently, a new crossover technique for genetic algorithms has been proposed. The technique, called probabilistic adaptive crossover (PAX), includes the estimation of the probability distribution of the population, storing the information regarding the best and the worst solutions of the problem being solved in a probability vector. The use of the proposed technique to face Chilean wine classification based on chromatograms obtained from an HPLC is reported in this paper. PAX is used in the first stage as the feature selection method and then support vector machines (SVM) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) are used as classifiers. The results are compared with those obtained using the uniform (discrete) crossover standard technique and a variant of PAX called mixed crossover.

The assessment of risk of default on credit is important for financial institutions. Logistic regression and discriminant analysis are techniques traditionally used in credit rating for determining likelihood to default based on consumer application and credit reference agency data. We test support vector machines (SVM) against these traditional methods on a large credit card database. We find that they are competitive and can be used as the basis of a feature selection method to discover those features that are most significant in determining risk of default.
