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.

Mapping megacity growth with multi-sensor data

TL;DR: This paper presents an approach to map urban growth from multi-sensoral data, exemplified for the Dhaka megacity region in Bangladesh between 1990 and 2006, which is globally applicable and can facilitate regional urban growth maps in arbitrary complex and dynamic environments.

Using Markov Blankets for Causal Structure Learning

TL;DR: After running a series of comparative experiments on five artificial networks, it is argued that Markov blanket algorithms such as TC/TCbw or Grow-Shrink scale better than the reference PC algorithm and provides higher structural accuracy.

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.
