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.

Subspace based feature selection for pattern recognition

TL;DR: This paper proposes subspace based separability measures to determine the individual discriminatory power of the features and these measures are then employed to sort and select features in a multi-class manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

A hybrid feature selection method for DNA microarray data

TL;DR: In this paper, correlation-based feature selection and the Taguchi-genetic algorithm and the TGA method were combined into a hybrid method, and the K-nearest neighbor with the leave-one-out cross-validation method served as a classifier for eleven classification profiles to calculate the classification accuracy.

CovSel: Variable selection for highly multivariate and multi-response calibration: Application to IR spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, a new variable selection method, CovSel, is proposed for multi-response NIR spectroscopy, where variable selection is performed step by step on the basis of their global covariance with all the responses.

Support vector machine‐based feature selection for land cover classification: a case study with DAIS hyperspectral data

TL;DR: The results show the usefulness of random forest‐ and SVM‐based feature selection approaches in comparison to the SVM/GA approach for land cover classification problems with hyperspectral data, and an improved performance using these techniques in relation to the maximum noise transformation based feature extraction technique.

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.
