A scalable saliency-based feature selection method with instance-level information

作者:

Highlights:

• Most feature selection techniques are unable to provide instance-level information.

• A novel method based on deep-learning saliency techniques is proposed.

• It can be used in any architecture trained using gradient descent technique.

• We successfully tested our method on different datasets, getting encouraging results.
