NiaClass is a framework for solving classification tasks using nature-inspired algorithms. The framework is written fully in Python. Its goal is to find the best possible set of classification rules for the input data using the NiaPy framework, which is a popular Python collection of nature-inspired algorithms. The NiaClass classifier supports numerical and categorical features.
