Abstract: The expeditious proliferation of web services over the current web-cyberspace becomes a significant challenge for the web service classification. Recent reports suggest a deep learning algorithm namely, gated recurrent unit, performs well. But the performance of the GRU classifier hinges on structure of the GRU classifier namely, hidden neural network (HNN) and training data. Hence, it is significant to predict optimal HNN and training dataset. The recent studies revealed that genetic algorithm (GA) is most suited for this optimisation problem. However, GA is inefficient in terms of convergence rate and generation of prudent solution. For that, domain knowledge is incorporated in GA operator in order to accelerate convergence rate called as knowledge-based genetic algorithm (KBGA). The research work adopts KBGA to optimise the structure of GRU, so that the classifier outperforms the classification process. Extensive analysis and statistical hypothesis test have been done to show the efficacy of KBGA.
