Classifier subset selection (CSS) from a large ensemble is an effective way to design multiple classifier systems (MCSs). Given a validation dataset and a selection criterion, the task of CSS is reduced to searching the space of classifier subsets to find the optimal subset. Advanced Search...

Sometimes sequential search is not a bad algorithm, especially when the list isn't long. After all, sequential search is easier to implement than binary search, and does not require the list to be sorted.

:-) The loop terminates if i is a null pointer (the algorithm assumes a null pointer terminates the list) or if the item was found. The basic sequential search algorithm can be improved in a number of ways. One of those ways is to assume that the item being searched for will always be in the list.

Definition: Search an array or list by checking items one at a time. Also known as sequential search. See also binary search, hash table.

Definition: Search an array or list by checking items one at a time. If the value is found, swap it with its predecessor so it is found faster next time. Also known as self-organizing sequential search. See also linear search, move-to-front heuristic, self-organizing list.

If you're just searching for a number in a list of numbers, this would be a pretty bad method, because the time for doing the random permutation would probably be more than the worst case for the original deterministic sequential search algorithm.
