Presentation / Conference Contribution
Herrera, L. J., Rubio, G., Pomares, H., Paechter, B., Guillén, A., & Rojas, I. Strengthening the Forward Variable Selection Stopping Criterion

Given any modeling problem, variable selection is a preprocess step that selects the most relevant variables with respect to the output variable. Forward selection is the most straightforward strategy for variable selection; its application using the... Read More about Strengthening the Forward Variable Selection Stopping Criterion.
