Generates a search function based on the hill climbing method. This function is called internally within the searchAlgorithm
function. The Hill-Climbing \insertCiteRussell2009FSinR method starts with a certain set of features and in each iteration it searches among its neighbors to advance towards a better solution. The method ends as soon as no better solutions are found.

|
start |
Binary vector with the set of initial features |
nneigh |
Number of neighbors to evaluate in each iteration of the algorithm. By default: all posibles. It is important to note that a high value of this parameter considerably increases the computation time. |
repeats |
Number of repetitions of the algorithm |
verbose |
Print the partial results in each iteration |
Returns a search function that is used to guide the feature selection process.
