Application of Feature Selection for Unsupervised Learning in Prosecutors' Office
Feature selection is effective in removing irrelevant data. However, the result of feature selection in unsupervised learning is not as satisfying as that in supervised learning. In this paper, we propose a novel methodology ULAC (Feature Selection for Unsupervised Learning Based on Attribute Correlation Analysis and Clustering Algorithm) to identify important features for unsupervised learning...
متن کاملUnsupervised feature selection using clustering ensembles and population based incremental learning algorithm
This paper describes a novel feature selection algorithm for unsupervised clustering, that combines the clustering ensembles method and the population based incremental learning algorithm. The main idea of the proposed unsupervised feature selection algorithm is to search for a subset of all features such that the clustering algorithm trained on this feature subset can achieve the most similar ...
متن کاملReconstruction-based Unsupervised Feature Selection: An Embedded Approach
Feature selection has been proven to be effective and efficient in preparing high-dimensional data for data mining and machine learning problems. Since real-world data is usually unlabeled, unsupervised feature selection has received increasing attention in recent years. Without label information, unsupervised feature selection needs alternative criteria to define feature relevance. Recently, d...
متن کاملOnline Learning of a Dirichlet Process Mixture of Generalized Dirichlet Distributions for Simultaneous Clustering and Localized Feature Selection
Online algorithms allow data instances to be processed in a sequential way, which is important for large-scale and real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a novel online clustering approach based on a Dirichlet process mixture of generalized Dirichlet (GD) distributions, which can be considered as an extension of the finite GD mixture model to the infinite case. Our approach is built ...
متن کاملEmbedded Unsupervised Feature Selection
Sparse learning has been proven to be a powerful technique in supervised feature selection, which allows to embed feature selection into the classification (or regression) problem. In recent years, increasing attention has been on applying spare learning in unsupervised feature selection. Due to the lack of label information, the vast majority of these algorithms usually generate cluster labels...
