Localized Feature Selection (LFS)

Localized feature selection (LFS) is an approach whereby each region of the sample space is associated with its own distinct optimized feature set, which may vary both in membership and size across the sample space. This allows the feature set to optimally adapt to local variations in the sample space.

This repository contains a python implementation of this method that is compatible with scikit-learn pipelines. For a Matlab version, refer to LINK

Installation

Dependancies

LFS requires:

• python
• NumPy
• SciPy
• Scikit-learn

Usage

from LFS import LocalFeatureSelection
from sklearn.pipeline import Pipeline

lfs = LocalFeatureSelection()
pipeline = Pipeline([('lfs', lfs)])
pipeline.fit(training_data, training_labels)
predicted_labels = pipeline.predict(testing_data)
total_error, class_error = pipeline.score(testing_data, testing_labels)
