Title
Incremental Feature Selection Using a Conditional Entropy Based on Fuzzy Dominance Neighborhood Rough Sets
Abstract
Incremental feature selection approaches can improve the efficiency of feature selection used for dynamic datasets, which has attracted increasing research attention. Nevertheless, there is currently no work on incremental feature selection approaches for dynamic ordered data. Moreover, the monotonic classification effect of ordered data is easily affected by noise, so a robust feature evaluation metric is needed for feature selection algorithm. Motivated by these two issues, we investigate incremental feature selection approaches using a new conditional entropy with robustness for dynamic ordered data in this study. First, we propose a new rough set model, i.e., fuzzy dominance neighborhood rough sets (FDNRS). Second, a conditional entropy with robustness is defined based on FDNRS model, which is used as evaluation metric for features and combined with a heuristic feature selection algorithm. Finally, two incremental feature selection algorithms are designed on the basis of the above researches. Experiments are performed on ten public datasets to evaluate the robustness of the proposed metric and the performance of the incremental algorithms. Experimental results verify that the proposed metric is robust and our incremental algorithms are effective and efficient for updating reducts in dynamic ordered data.
