In machine learning, feature selection is the process of selecting a subset of relevant features (variables, predictors) for use in model construction. Feature selection techniques are used for several reasons: simplification of models to make them easier to interpret, [1] shorter training times, [2] to avoid the curse of dimensionality, [3]
Feature engineering in machine learning and statistical modeling involves selecting, creating, transforming, and extracting data features. Key components include feature creation from existing data, transforming and imputing missing or invalid features, reducing data dimensionality through methods like Principal Components Analysis (PCA), Independent Component Analysis (ICA), and Linear ...
Alternatively, if a feature value difference is observed in a neighboring instance pair with different class values (a 'miss'), the feature score increases. The original Relief algorithm has since inspired a family of Relief-based feature selection algorithms (RBAs), including the ReliefF [3] algorithm.
In machine learning (ML), feature learning or representation learning [2] is a set of techniques that allow a system to automatically discover the representations needed for feature detection or classification from raw data.
In machine learning and pattern recognition, a feature is an individual measurable property or characteristic of a data set. [1] Choosing informative, discriminating, and independent features is crucial to produce effective algorithms for pattern recognition , classification , and regression tasks.
In machine learning the random subspace method, [1] also called attribute bagging [2] or feature bagging, is an ensemble learning method that attempts to reduce the correlation between estimators in an ensemble by training them on random samples of features instead of the entire feature set.
The process of feature selection aims to find a suitable subset of the input variables (features, or attributes) for the task at hand.The three strategies are: the filter strategy (e.g., information gain), the wrapper strategy (e.g., accuracy-guided search), and the embedded strategy (features are added or removed while building the model based on prediction errors).
Machine learning and data mining often employ the same methods and overlap significantly, but while machine learning focuses on prediction, based on known properties learned from the training data, data mining focuses on the discovery of (previously) unknown properties in the data (this is the analysis step of knowledge discovery in databases).
