On Information-Theoretic Measures of Attribute Importance
Abstract. An attribute is deemed important in data mining if it partitions the database such that previously unknown regularities are observable. Many information-theoretic measures have been applied to quantify the importance of an attribute. In this paper, we summarize and critically analyze these measures.
