Chi-Squared Feature Selection Pearson’s chi-squared statistical hypothesis test is an example of a test for independence between categorical variables. You can learn more about this statistical test in the tutorial: A Gentle Introduction to the Chi-Squared Test for Machine Learning The results of...
Perhaps the simplest case of feature selection is the case where there are numerical input variables and a numerical target for regression predictive modeling. This is because the strength of the relationship between each input variable and the target can be calculated, called correlation, and compare...

Feature transformationtechniques reduce the dimensionality in the data by transforming data into new features.Feature selectiontechniques are preferable when transformation of variables is not possible, e.g., when there are categorical variables in the data. For a feature selection technique that is spec...

between two categorical variables. It is used in feature selection to analyze the relationship between a categorical feature and the target variable. A greater Chi-square score shows a stronger link between the feature and the target, showing that the feature is more important for the ...
Too many variables might result to overfitting which means model is not able to generalize pattern Too many variables leads to slow computation which in turns requires more memory and hardware. Why Boruta Package? There are a lot of packages for feature selection in R. The question arises " Wh...
The first way is the new way where you use scikit-learn's `fit and predict` syntax. It also includes the `lazytransformer` library that I created to transform datetime, NLP and categorical variables into numeric variables automatically. We recommend that you use it as the main syntax for al...
Thank you for this nice blog I have a regression problem and I need to convert a bunch of categorical variables into dummy data, which will generate over 200 new columns. Should I do the feature selection before this step or after this step? Thanks Reply Jason Brownlee January 9, 2017 ...
