Abstract [eng] The article introduces an innovative approach to global optimization and feature selection (FS) using the RIME algorithm, inspired by RIME-ice formation. The RIME algorithm employs a soft-RIME search strategy and a hard-RIME puncture mechanism, along with an improved positive greedy selection mechanism, to resist getting trapped in local optima and enhance its overall search capabilities. The article also introduces Binary modified RIME (mRIME), a binary adaptation of the RIME algorithm to address the unique challenges posed by FS problems, which typically involve binary search spaces. Four different types of transfer functions (TFs) were selected for FS issues, and their efficacy was investigated for global optimization using CEC2011 and CEC2017 and FS tasks related to disease diagnosis. The results of the proposed mRIME were tested on ten reliable optimization algorithms. The advanced RIME architecture demonstrated superior performance in global optimization and FS tasks, providing an effective solution to complex optimization problems in various domains.
