Reducing the number o f attributes in the classification model helps to alleviate^Mp curse o f dimensionality, where it is the major crisis to data storage and also facilitates the mining techniques like classification, clustering, communi^lmb^, visualization and high-dimensional data storage. Once the dimensionality o f a n g ^ J ^ increases then it leads the data to sparsity. Sparsity problem is quite tricky for e^ytechnique that entails statistical importance. Thus, it is necessary to remove the^ ir iy ^ a n t and redundant features, augment the performance o f the classifier model, speed learning task, interpret the model and highlight the vital features with their ralmidm. In this paper, a modfied feature selection technique based on fuzzy Roughset t h e ^ ^ n d Differential Evolution is proposed.
