Sequential forward selection (SFS) is one of the most widely used feature selection procedures. It starts with an empty set and adds one feature at each step. The estimate of the ...
Feature selection plays a fundamental role in many pattern
recognition problems. However, most efforts have been
focused on the supervised scenario, while unsupervised feature
s...
