Evolutionary algorithms are used to find the fastest and best way to perform these calculations, such as the bat algorithm (BA) by reducing the dimensions of the search area after changing it from continuous to discrete. In this paper, we will propose a method of linking and conclude the selection of the best and most influential features on the results by neglecting the negative impact features through three stages: the first will be the arrangement of the features columns according to their importance Starting of the most important using mutual information technology and the second stage the process of cutting these features into A certain limit and content with the most important and the calculations using the workbook NAVI_BAIS and then the final stage using the bat algorithm (BBA). The proposed algorithm describes speed, efficiency, and accuracy so that it produces high-precision results based on fewer features }
