Experiment 2: TCS images were obtained by Philips SONOS 5500 with different examiners. Totally, 67 images from 38 PD patients and 71 images from 39 healthy subjects were included. All 77 subjects underwent a neurological examination. The rotationinvariant Gabor filter bank was applied to the ROI of TCS images. Then the Gabor features, mean, std and entropy, were calculated and evaluated by SVMs...

objective(s): this study addresses feature selection for breast cancer diagnosis. the present process uses a wrapper approach using ga-based on feature selection and ps-classifier. the results of experiment show that the proposed model is comparable to the other models on wisconsin breast cancer datasets. materials and methods: to evaluate effectiveness of proposed feature selection method, we ...

gression enable us to investigate the relationship between a categorical outcome and a set of explanatory variables. The outcome or response can be either dichotomous (yes, no) or ordinal (low, medium, high). During dichotomous response, we are performing standard logistic regression and for ordinal response, model that uses standard logistic regression formula with feature selection using forw...

In this study, the authors propose a new feature selection scheme, the incremental forward feature selection, which is inspired by incremental reduced support vector machines. In their method, a new feature is added into the current selected feature subset if it will bring in the most extra information. This information is measured by using the distance between the new feature vector and the co...

In feature selection, a search problem of finding a subset of features from a given set of measurements has been of interest for a long time. However, unsupervised methods are scarce. An unsupervised criterion, based on SVD-entropy (Singular Value Decomposition), selects a feature according to its contribution to the entropy (CE) calculated on a leave-one-out basis. Based on this criterion, thi...

In this article, we describe and interpret a set of acoustic and linguistic features that characterise emotional/emotion-related user states – confined to the one database processed: four classes in a German corpus of children interacting with a pet robot. To this end, we collected a very large feature vector consisting of more than 4000 features extracted at different sites. We performed exten...

Objective(s): This study addresses feature selection for breast cancer diagnosis. The present process uses a wrapper approach using GA-based on feature selection and PS-classifier. The results of experiment show that the proposed model is comparable to the other models on Wisconsin breast cancer datasets. Materials and Methods: To evaluate effectiveness of proposed feature selection method, we ...

In our previous work, we have developed the backward feature selection method based on class regions approximated by ellipsoids. In this paper, we accelerate feature selection by the forward selection search, the symmetric Cholesky factorization, and deletion of duplicated calculations between consecutive factorizations. The feature selection for two data sets shows that our method is faster th...

Steel consumption is a critical factor affecting pricing decisions and a key element to achieve sustainable industrial development. Forecasting future trends of steel consumption based on analysis of nonlinear patterns using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques is the main purpose of this paper. Because there are several features affecting target variable which make the analysis of relations...
