VMFS: A VIKOR-based multi-target feature selection

作者：

Highlights：

• We have designed a method for feature selection on the multi-target data.

• we model the feature selection process to a multi-criteria decision-making.

• The VIKOR method is used to rank the features.

• Cosine similarity is used to measure the relation between features and targets.

• The proposed VIKOR-based multi-target method outperforms competitive methods.
