RETRACTED: Impact of Feature Selection for Data Classification Using Naive Bayes Classifier

Abstract

In the field of data processing and analysis, the dataset may be a large set of features that restrict data usability and applicability, and thus the dimensions of data sets need to be reduced. Feature selection is the process of removing as much of the redundant and irrelevant features as possible from the original dataset to improve the mining process efficiency. This paper presented a study to evaluate and compare the effect of filter and wrapper methods as feature selection approaches in terms of classification accuracy and time complexity. The Naive Bayes Classifier and three classification datasets from the UCI repository are utilizing in the classification procedure. To investigate the effect of feature selection methods, they are applied to the different characteristics datasets to obtain the selected feature vectors which are then classified according to each dataset category. The datasets used in this paper are the Iris, Ionosphere, and Ovarian Cancer dataset. Experimental results indicate that the filter and wrapper methods provide approximately equal classification accuracy where the average accuracy value of the Ionosphere and Ovarian Cancer dataset is 0.78 and 0.91 for the same selected feature vectors respectively. For Iris dataset, the filter method outperforms the wrapper method by achieving the same accuracy value using only half number of selected features. The results also show that the filter method surpasses when considering the execution time.

Application of Intelligent Taste Analysis Based on Random Forest Algorithm in Food Quality Inspection

“…Since the sample size collected during the experiment was not very large, a 5-fold cross-validation method was used to ensure the validity of the experiment, and 60% of the sample overview was selected as the training sample and 40% of the sample as the test sample. The comparison algorithms used were all classical classification algorithms, mainly SVM [ 23 ], RF (RF) [ 24 ], radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) [ 25 ], and Naive Bayes (NB) [ 26 ].…”

Electronic Music Signal Denoising Method Based on Naive Bayes

“…In addition, low-pass filtering method can effectively remove noise signal at the same time, it will also make the music signal fuzzy, and its timbre will be affected. Fourier transform is generally used in filtering noise reduction, but according to the uncertainty principle, good resolution cannot be obtained in both time domain and frequency domain [8][9][10].…”
