چکیده

This paper addresses the problem of feature selection for the high dimensional data clustering. This is a difficult problem because the ground truth class labels that can guide the selection are unavailable in clustering. Besides, the data may have a large number of features and the irrelevant ones can ruin the clustering. In this paper, we propose a novel feature weighting scheme for a kernel based clustering criterion, in which the weight for each feature is a measure of its contribution to the clustering task. Accordingly, we give a well-defined objective function, which can be explicitly solved in an iterative way. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Feature Selection for Small Sample Sets with High Dimensional Data Using Heuristic Hybrid Approach

Feature selection can significantly be decisive when analyzing high dimensional data, especially with a small number of samples. Feature extraction methods do not have decent performance in these conditions. With small sample sets and high dimensional data, exploring a large search space and learning from insufficient samples becomes extremely hard. As a result, neural networks and clustering a...
