Modern Data Mining Algorithms in C++ and CUDA C: Recent Developments in Feature Extraction and Selection Algorithms for Data Science

Discover a variety of data-mining algorithms that are useful for selecting small sets of important features from among unwieldy masses of candidates, or extracting useful features from measured variables.

As a serious data miner you will often be faced with thousands of candidate features for your prediction or classification application, with most of the features being of little or no value. You’ll know that many of these features may be useful only in combination with certain other featu...
