特徵選取為機器學習常見的資料前處理的方法，現今已有許多不同的特徵選取演算法，然而並不存在一個在所有資料上都優於其他方法的演算法，且由於現今的資料種類繁多，所以研發新的方法能夠帶來更多有關資料的資訊並且根據資料的特性採用不同的變數選取演算法是較好的做法。
本研究使用資訊理論entropy的概念依照變數之間資料雲幾何樹的分群結果定義變數之間的相關性，且依此選取資料的特徵，並與同樣使用entropy概念的FCBF方法、Lasso、F-score、隨機森林、基因演算法互相比較，本研究使用階層式分群法與多數決投票法套用在真實的資料上判斷預測率。結果顯示，本研究使用的entropy方法在各個不同的資料集上有較穩定的預測率提升表現，同時資料縮減的維度也相對穩定。 / Feature selection is a common preprocessing technique in machine learning. Although a large pool of feature selection techniques has existed, there is no such a dominant method in all datasets. Because of the complexity of various data formats, establishing a new method can bring more insight into data, and applying proper techniques to analyzing data would be the best choice.
In this study, we used the concept of entropy from information theory to build a similarity matrix between features. Additionally, we constructed a DCG-tree to separate variables into clusters. Each core cluster consists of rather uniform variables, which share similar covariate information. With the core clusters, we reduced the dimension of a high-dimensional dataset. We assessed our method by comparing it with FCBF, Lasso, F-score, random forest and genetic algorithm. The performances of prediction were demonstrated through real-world datasets using hierarchical clustering with voting algorithm as the classifier. The results showed that our entropy method has more stable prediction performances and reduces sufficient dimensions of the datasets simultaneously.
