Fast-Ensembles of Minimum Redundancy Feature Selection
share
Finding relevant subspaces in very high-dimensional data is a challenging task not only for microarray data. The selection of features is to enhance the classification performance, but on the other hand the feature selection must be stable, i.e., the set of features selected should not change when using different subsets of a population. ensemble methods have succeeded in the increase of stability and classification accuracy. However, their runtime prevents them from scaling up to real-world applications.We propose two methods which enhance correlation-based feature selection such that the stability of feature selection comes with little or even no extra runtime.We show the efficiency of the algorithms analytically and empirically on a wide range of datasets.
