The "curse of dimensionality" and the high computational cost have still limited the application of the evolutionary algorithm in high-dimensional feature selection (FS) problems. This article proposes a new three-phase hybrid FS algorithm based on correlation-guided clustering and particle swarm optimization (PSO) (HFS-C-P) to tackle the above two problems at the same time. To this end, three kinds of FS methods are effectively integrated into the proposed algorithm based on their respective advantages. In the first and second phases, a filter FS method and a feature clustering-based method with low computational cost are designed to reduce the search space used by the third phase. After that, the third phase applies oneself to finding an optimal feature subset by using an evolutionary algorithm with the global searchability. Moreover, a symmetric uncertainty-based feature deletion method, a fast correlation-guided feature clustering strategy, and an improved integer PSO are developed to improve the performance of the three phases, respectively. Finally, the proposed algorithm is validated on 18 publicly available real-world datasets in comparison with nine FS algorithms. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain a good feature subset with the lowest computational cost.
