The problem of classification consists of using some known objects, usually described by a large vector of features, to induce a model that classifies others into known classes. Selecting the right set of features for classification is one of the most important problems in designing a good classifier. In this paper, a tabu search algorithm is proposed for the solution of the feature selection problem. Tabu Search is a well known and effective metaheuristic algorithm that was first introduced for the solution of combinatorial optimization problems. This algorithm is combined with a number of nearest neighbor based classifiers. The algorithm is tested in two sets of data for Pap-Smear Cell Classification. The first one consists of 917 images of Pap smear cells and the second set consists of 500 images, classified carefully by cyto-technicians and doctors. Each cell is described by 20 features, and the cells fall into 7 classes but a minimal requirement is to separate normal from abnormal cells, which is a 2 class problem.
