Efficient feature size reduction via predictive forward selection

作者:

Highlights:

• A new approach for faster feature selection using experience is presented.

• Comparison to wrapper, filter and embedded approaches on 59 datasets is provided.

• The difference to forward selection is statistically not significant.

• It requires much fewer classifier evaluations.

• It is statistically significant better than filter and embedded approaches.
