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.

Privacy-preserving data mining: A feature set partitioning approach

TL;DR: The proposed data mining privacy by decomposition (DMPD) algorithm uses a genetic algorithm to search for optimal feature set partitioning and suggests that DMPD performs better than existing k-anonymity-based algorithms and there is no necessity for applying domain dependent knowledge.

Data mining for case-based reasoning in high-dimensional biological domains

TL;DR: This work proposes the mixture of experts for case-based reasoning (MOE4CBR), a method that combines an ensemble of CBR classifiers with spectral clustering and logistic regression that achieves higher prediction accuracy and leads to the selection of a subset of features that have meaningful relationships with their class labels.

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.
