Floating search methods in feature selection
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.About:

Fusion of Hyperspectral and LIDAR Remote Sensing Data for Classification of Complex Forest Areas
TL;DR: The elevation channel of the first LIDAR return was very effective for the separation of species with similar spectral signatures but different mean heights, and the SVM classifier proved to be very robust and accurate in the exploitation of the considered multisource data.

Improved binary PSO for feature selection using gene expression data
TL;DR: Improved binary particle swarm optimization (IBPSO) is used in this study to implement feature selection, and the K-nearest neighbor (K-NN) method serves as an evaluator of the IBPSO for gene expression data classification problems, showing that this method effectively simplifies feature selection and reduces the total number of features needed.

Statistical Learning of Multi-view Face Detection
TL;DR: FloatBoost incorporates the idea of Floating Search into AdaBoost to solve the non-monotonicity problem encountered in the sequential search of AdaBoost and leads to the first real-time multi-view face detection system in the world.

Image Quality Assessment for Fake Biometric Detection: Application to Iris, Fingerprint, and Face Recognition
TL;DR: A novel software-based fake detection method that can be used in multiple biometric systems to detect different types of fraudulent access attempts and the experimental results show that the proposed method is highly competitive compared with other state-of-the-art approaches.

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.

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.
