Dynamic relevance and interdependent feature selection for continuous data

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel Feature Selection (FS) named DRIFS is proposed based on statistical measures.

• The DRIFS eliminates discretization overhead for continuous data.

• The DRIFS is on a par with objectives of information theoretic based FS.

• The DRIFS method differentiates between redundant and interdependent features.

• Application of the DRIFS leads to an improvement in classification accuracy.
