SVM-Based Feature Selection by Direct Objective Minimisation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose various novel embedded approaches for (simultaneous) feature selection and classification within a general optimisation framework. In particular, we include linear and nonlinear SVMs. We apply difference of convex functions programming to solve our problems and present results for artificial and real-world data.

Feature Selection Using Multi Objective Genetic Algorithm with Support Vector Machine
Different approaches have been proposed for feature selection to obtain suitable features subset among all features. These methods search feature space for feature subsets which satisfies some criteria or optimizes several objective functions. The objective functions are divided into two main groups: filter and wrapper methods. In filter methods, features subsets are selected due to some measu...
متن کاملMental Arithmetic Task Recognition Using Effective Connectivity and Hierarchical Feature Selection From EEG Signals
Introduction: Mental arithmetic analysis based on Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal for monitoring the state of the user’s brain functioning can be helpful for understanding some psychological disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, or dyscalculia where the difficulty in learning or understanding the arithmetic exists. Most mental arithmetic recogni...
متن کاملMachine learning based Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) Signals Recognition
Introduction: Visual evoked potentials contain certain diagnostic information which have proved to be of importance in the visual systems functional integrity. Due to substantial decrease of amplitude in extra macular stimulation in commonly used pattern VEPs, differentiating normal and abnormal signals can prove to be quite an obstacle. Due to developments of use of machine l...
متن کاملOn the Problem of Finding the Least Number of Features by L1-Norm Minimisation
Recently, the so-called Support Feature Machine (SFM) was proposed as a novel approach to feature selection for classification. It relies on approximating the zero-norm minimising weight vector of a separating hyperplane by optimising for its one-norm. In contrast to the L1-SVM it uses an additional constraint based on the average of data points. In experiments on artificial datasets we observe...
متن کاملClassification of Right/Left Hand Motor Imagery by Effective Connectivity Based on Transfer Entropy in EEG Signal
The right and left hand Motor Imagery (MI) analysis based on the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal can directly link the central nervous system to a computer or a device. This study aims to identify a set of robust and nonlinear effective brain connectivity features quantified by transfer entropy (TE) to characterize the relationship between brain regions from EEG signals and create a hierarchi...
