Abstract

In an embedded approach to feature selection and reduction, a mechanism determining their choice constitutes a part of an inductive learning algorithm, as happens for example in construction of decision trees, artificial neural networks with pruning, or rough sets with activated relative reducts. The paper presents the embedded solution based on assumed weights for reducts and measures defined for conditional attributes, where weighting of these attributes was used in their backward elimination for rule classifiers induced in Dominance-Based Rough Set Approach. The methodology is illustrated with a binary classification case of authorship attribution.
