  • Abstract
    A novel measure, importance degree of features, is proposed to rank the features. And a new filter method is presented to carry out feature selection based on such measure. The monotonic property of this proposed measure can reduce the search space, which results in enhancing learning efficiency. The simulation results indicate the validity of our method.
