Feature selection for clustering with constraints using Jensen-Shannon divergence
In semi-supervised clustering, domain knowledge can be converted to constraints and used to guide the clustering. In this paper we propose a feature selection algorithm for semi-s...

Graph-Based Iterative Hybrid Feature Selection
When the number of labeled examples is limited, traditional supervised feature selection techniques often fail due to sample selection bias or unrepresentative sample problem. To ...

Direct Zero-Norm Optimization for Feature Selection
Zero-norm, defined as the number of non-zero elements in a vector, is an ideal quantity for feature selection. However, minimization of zero-norm is generally regarded as a combi...

Discriminative feature selection for hidden Markov models using Segmental Boosting
We address the feature selection problem for hidden Markov models (HMMs) in sequence classification. Temporal correlation in sequences often causes difficulty in applying featur...

Multi-task Feature Selection Using the Multiple Inclusion Criterion (MIC)
Abstract. We address the problem of joint feature selection in multiple related classification or regression tasks. When doing feature selection with multiple tasks, usually one c...

Feature Selection for Value Function Approximation Using Bayesian Model Selection
Abstract. Feature selection in reinforcement learning (RL), i.e. choosing basis functions such that useful approximations of the unkown value function can be obtained, is one of th...

Feature selection for ranking using boosted trees
Modern search engines have to be fast to satisfy users, so there are hard back-end latency requirements. The set of features useful for search ranking functions, though, continues...
