Modelling Complex Data by Learning Which Variable to Construct
Abstract. This paper addresses a task of variable selection which consists in choosing a subset of variables that is sufficient to predict the target label well. Here instead of tr...

Variable Selection in Model-Based Clustering: To Do or To Facilitate
Variable selection for cluster analysis is a difficult problem. The difficulty originates not only from the lack of class information but also the fact that high-dimensional data ...

Variable-Selection Heuristics in Local Search for SAT
One of the important components of a local search strategy for satisfiability testing is the variable selection heuristic, which determines the next variable to be flipped. In a...

Random Forests Feature Selection with K-PLS: Detecting Ischemia from Magnetocardiograms
Random Forests were introduced by Breiman for feature (variable) selection and improved predictions for decision tree models. The resulting model is often superior to AdaBoost and ...

Learning Graphical Model Structure Using L1-Regularization Paths
Sparsity-promoting L1-regularization has recently been succesfully used to learn the structure of undirected graphical models. In this paper, we apply this technique to learn the ...
