Abstract

As detailed in Chap. 4, features have been extracted from the pre-processed data. Too many features may lead to the curse of dimensionality issues. This chapter explains how to obtain a set of relevant features which is the process of feature selection. Feature selection is the process in which most informative variables are selected for the generation of the model. It helps to remove the redundant data and contributes to proper classification. While minimizing the redundancy, we should keep in mind that the predicted information must be preserved as much as possible. This chapter describes various feature selection methods such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA)-based approach, Mutual Information (MI), Bhattacharyya Distance (BD), and Independent Component Analysis (ICA). A novel feature selection based on graphical review has also been elaborated later in this chapter.
