Image for representation purpose Feature selection is the method of reducing data dimension while doing predictive analysis. One major reason is that machine learning follows the rule of “garbage in-garbage out” and that is why one needs to be very concerned about the data that is being fed to the model. In this article, we…

The central idea behind using any feature selection technique is to simplify the models, reduce the training times, avoid the curse of dimensionality without losing much of information. The popular feature selection methods are: Filter method Wrapper method Embedded method For example, PCAs are popular with dimensionality reduction but the underlying assumptions of PCA depend…
