Abstract. Feature selection is an important task in data mining because it allows to reduce the data dimensionality and eliminates the noisy variables. Traditionally, feature selec...
In many computer vision tasks like face recognition and image retrieval, one is often confronted with high-dimensional data. Procedures that are analytically or computationally ma...
Algorithms for feature selection fall into two broad categories: wrappers that use the learning algorithm itself to evaluate the usefulness of features and filters that evaluate f...
Background: Microarray pre-processing usually consists of normalization and summarization. Normalization aims to remove non-biological variations across different arrays. The norm...
In rough set theory, the problem of feature selection aims to retain the discriminatory power of original features. Many feature selection algorithms have been proposed, however, q...
