To improve the efficiency and accuracy of CTQs identification, we propose a novel hybrid approach based on mutual information and improved gravitational search algorithm, which has advantages of filter and wrapper. At first, the information relevance and redundancy are measured by mutual information. Then, the improved gravitational search algorithm is used to search the CTQs. Experimentation is carried out using 2 UCI data sets, and the classification capability of CTQs is tested by SVM and tenfold cross validation. The results show that the presented method is verified to be effective and practically applicable.
