Feature selection, as a preprocessing step to machine learning, has been effective in reducing dimensionality, removing irrelevant data, increasing learning accuracy, and improvin...
Feature selection is a problem of choosing a subset of relevant features. Researchers have been searching for optimal feature selection methods. `Branch and Bound' and Focus a...
Appropriate feature selection is a very crucial issue in any machine learning framework, specially in Maximum Entropy (ME). In this paper, the selection of appropriate features for...
In this paper, we examine the advantages and disadvantages of filter and wrapper methods for feature selection and propose a new hybrid algorithm that uses boosting and incorporat...
Feature selection is often applied to highdimensional data prior to classification learning. Using the same training dataset in both selection and learning can result in socalled ...
