Abstract:
Feature selection algorithms are the cornerstone of machine learning. By increasing the properties of the samples and samples, the feature selection algorithm selects the significant features. The general name of the methods that perform this function is the feature selection algorithm. The general purpose of feature selection algorithms is to select the most relevant properties of data classes and to increase the classification performance. Thus, we can select features based on their classification performance. In this study, we have developed a feature selection algorithm based on decision support vectors classification performance. The method can work according to two different selection criteria. We tested the classification performances of the features selected with P-Score with three different classifiers. Besides, we assessed P-Score performance with 13 feature selection algorithms in the literature. According to the results of the study, the P-Score feature selection algorithm has been determined as a method which can be used in the field of machine learning. (C) 2020 AGBM.
