Fuzzy Entropy based Max-Relevancy and Min-Redundancy Feature Selection
Feature selection is an important problem for pattern classification systems. Mutual information is a good indicator of relevance between variables, and has been used as a measure...

Feature Selection for SVMs
We introduce a method of feature selection for Support Vector Machines. The method is based upon finding those features which minimize bounds on the leave-one-out error. This sear...

Feature Selection in Clustering Problems
A novel approach to combining clustering and feature selection is presented. It implements a wrapper strategy for feature selection, in the sense that the features are directly se...
