Hyper Parameter Optimization using Genetic Algorithm on Machine Learning Methods for Online News Popularity Prediction

Abstract

Online news is a media for people to get new information. There are a lot of online news media out there and a many people will only read news that is interesting for them. This kind of news tends to be popular and will bring profit to the media owner. That’s why, it is necessary to predict whether a news is popular or not by using the prediction methods. Machine learning is one of the popular prediction methods we can use. In order to make a higher accuracy of prediction, the best hyper parameter of machine learning methods need to be determined. Determining the hyper parameter can be time consuming if we use grid search method because grid search is a method which tries all possible combination of hyper parameter. This is a problem because we need a quicker time to make a prediction of online news popularity. Hence, genetic algorithm is proposed as the alternative solution because genetic algorithm can get optimal hypermeter with reasonable time. The result of implementation shows that genetic algorithm can get the hyper parameter with almost the same result with grid search with faster computational time. The reduction in computational time is as follows: Support Vector Machine is 425.06%, Random forest is 17%, Adaptive Boosting is 651.06%, and lastly K - Nearest Neighbour is 396.72%.
