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.

Tumor classification by combining PNN classifier ensemble with neighborhood rough set based gene reduction

TL;DR: Experiments showed that the proposed ensemble of probabilistic neural network (PNN) and neighborhood rough set model based gene reduction approach to tumor classification can obtain both high and stable classification performance, which is not too sensitive to the number of initially selected genes and competitive to most existing methods.

Machine Learning-Based IoT-Botnet Attack Detection with Sequential Architecture.

TL;DR: The proposed machine learning (ML)-based botnet attack detection framework with sequential detection architecture can effectively detect botnet-based attacks, and also can be extended with corresponding sub-engines for new kinds of attacks.

A multi-filter enhanced genetic ensemble system for gene selection and sample classification of microarray data

TL;DR: The experimental results indicate that the proposed multi-filter enhanced genetic ensemble (MF-GE) system is able to improve sample classification accuracy, generate more compact gene subset, and converge to the selection results more quickly.

Feature selection in Bayesian classifiers for the prognosis of survival of cirrhotic patients treated with TIPS

TL;DR: In this article, feature subset selection is applied to distinguish between the two subgroups of cirrhotic patients, and the estimated accuracies obtained tally with the results of previous studies. But, the medical significance of the subset selected by the classifiers along with the comprehensibility of Bayesian models is greatly appreciated by physicians.

Towards a Memetic Feature Selection Paradigm [Application Notes]

TL;DR: This article considers two real-world feature selection applications: gene selection in cancer classification based on microarray data and band selection for pixel classification using hyperspectral imagery data.

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.
