Feature Selection in Machine Learning
Selecting the right features that contribute to your model is an art and a science. I call it art because much pain can be saved if you have good domain knowledge. The importance of a feature is intuitively known already though the quantity of influence may not be known. It is, of course, science for all the mathematical rigour it goes through for being a selected feature. Today, we will first understand why is feature selection an important aspect of Machine Learning and the
