FEATURE SELECTION USING HYPERGRAPHS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17533898 titled 'FEATURE SELECTION USING HYPERGRAPHS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system that uses a processor to receive a set of features, relations between the features, and target features. The target features are associated with certain relations. The processor generates a hypergraph based on these features and relations. It then selects a subset of features for each target feature based on the transitive closure of the hypergraph. Finally, the selected subset of features is transmitted.

  • The system uses a processor to receive features, relations, and target features.
  • It generates a hypergraph based on these inputs.
  • The processor selects a subset of features for each target feature.
  • The selection is based on the transitive closure of the hypergraph.
  • The selected subset of features is then transmitted.

Potential Applications

  • Data analysis and mining
  • Recommendation systems
  • Network analysis

Problems Solved

  • Efficiently selecting relevant features based on relations
  • Handling complex data structures and relationships
  • Streamlining data processing and transmission

Benefits

  • Improved accuracy in feature selection
  • Faster and more efficient data processing
  • Enhanced decision-making capabilities


Original Abstract Submitted

An example system includes a processor to receive a set of features, a set of relations between the features, and a set of target features. Each of the target features is associated with a number of the relations. The processor can generate a hypergraph based on the features and the relations. The processor also can select a subset of features based on a transitive closure of the hypergraph for each of the target features. The processor can transmit the selected subset of features.
