Unsupervised feature selection method based on iterative similarity graph factorization and clustering by modularity

作者:

Highlights:

• The paper provides a feature selection method based on improved clustering strategy.

• The data partition is generated by iteratively factoring the similarity matrix.

• The feature scoring is based on committees of classifiers, instead of single model.

• Computation time is feasible for real scenario and parameters are not critical.

• Experiments on synthetic and real data sets corroborate the proposed method.
