Wrappers for feature subset selection

Ron Kohavi, +1 more
- 01 Dec 1997 - 
- Vol. 97, Iss: 1, pp 273-324
TLDR
The wrapper method searches for an optimal feature subset tailored to a particular algorithm and a domain and compares the wrapper approach to induction without feature subset selection and to Relief, a filter approach tofeature subset selection.

Prediction of catalytic residues using Support Vector Machine with selected protein sequence and structural properties

TL;DR: A novel method for the prediction of catalytic sites, using a carefully selected, supervised machine learning algorithm coupled with an optimal discriminative set of protein sequence conservation and structural properties is presented.

The use of CART and multivariate regression trees for supervised and unsupervised feature selection

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how these approaches can improve (the detection of) the cluster structure in data and how they can be used for knowledge discovery.

Feature Selection by Maximizing Independent Classification Information

TL;DR: A new information term denoted as Independent Classification Information is proposed that assembles the newly provided information and the preserved information negatively correlated with the redundant information to find the predictive features providing large new information and little redundancy.

Semi-supervised local fisher discriminant analysis for dimensionality reduction

TL;DR: This paper proposes a semi-supervised dimensionality reduction method which preserves the global structure of unlabeled samples in addition to separating labeled samples in different classes from each other and it can be computed based on eigendecompositions.

Method system and computer program product for visualizing an evidence classifier

TL;DR: In this article, an evidence visualization tool uses the visualization data files to display an evidence pane and/or a label probability pane, showing a normalized conditional probability of each label value, for each attribute value.

Induction of Decision Trees

J. R. Quinlan
- 25 Mar 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to synthesizing decision trees that has been used in a variety of systems, and it describes one such system, ID3, in detail, is described, and a reported shortcoming of the basic algorithm is discussed.
