TLDR
Sequential search methods characterized by a dynamically changing number of features included or eliminated at each step, henceforth "floating" methods, are presented and are shown to give very good results and to be computationally more effective than the branch and bound method.

Detection of depression in speech

TL;DR: The motivation is to find out a speech feature set to detect, evaluate and even predict depression, and extracts features as many as possible according to previous research to create a large voice feature set.

Image Categorization Using ESFS: A New Embedded Feature Selection Method Based on SFS

TL;DR: This paper introduces a novel embedded feature selection method, called ESFS, which is inspired from the wrapper method SFS since it relies on the simple principle to add incrementally most relevant features, leading to a lower computational cost than original SFS.

Performance evaluation of the spectral autocorrelation function and autoregressive models for automated sleep apnea detection using single-lead ECG signal.

TL;DR: This study suggests that automatic OSA recognition from single-lead ECG signals is possible, which can be used as an inexpensive and low complexity burden alternative to more conventional methods such as Polysomnography.

A Branch and Bound Algorithm for Feature Subset Selection

TL;DR: In this paper, a branch and bound-based feature subset selection algorithm is proposed to select the best subset of m features from an n-feature set without exhaustive search, which is computationally computationally unfeasible.

A Direct Method of Nonparametric Measurement Selection

TL;DR: A direct method of measurement selection is proposed to determine the best subset of d measurements out of a set of D total measurements, using a nonparametric estimate of the probability of error given a finite design sample set.

On the effectiveness of receptors in recognition systems

TL;DR: Some of the theoretical problems encountered in trying to determine a more formal measure of the effectiveness of a set of tests are discussed; a measure which might be a practical substitute for the empirical evaluation.
