Artificial Intelligence based wrapper for high dimensional feature selection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Feature selection is important in high dimensional data analysis. The wrapper approach is one of the ways to perform feature selection, but it is computationally intensive as it builds and evaluates models of multiple subsets of features. The existing wrapper algorithm primarily focuses on shortening the path to find an optimal feature set. However, it underutilizes the capability of feature subset models, which impacts feature selection and its predictive performance. METHOD AND RESULTS: This study proposes a novel Artificial Intelligence based Wrapper (AIWrap) algorithm that integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) with the existing wrapper algorithm. The algorithm develops a Performance Prediction Model using AI which predicts the model performance of any feature set and allows the wrapper algorithm to evaluate the feature subset performance in a model without building the model. The algorithm can make the wrapper algorithm more relevant for high-dimensional data. We evaluate the performance of this algorithm using simulated studies and real research studies. AIWrap shows better or at par feature selection and model prediction performance than standard penalized feature selection algorithms and wrapper algorithms. CONCLUSION: AIWrap approach provides an alternative algorithm to the existing algorithms for feature selection. The current study focuses on AIWrap application in continuous cross-sectional data. However, it could be applied to other datasets like longitudinal, categorical and time-to-event biological data.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
