9 Feature selection methods in machine learning: from simple filters to interpretability with SHAP
Bondarenko K.
Abstract : This paper examines feature selection methods in machine learning tasks and their impact on model performance and interpretability. The problem of high-dimensional data remains one of the most critical challenges in modern analytics, as redundant and irrelevant features increase the risk of overfitting, complicate computations, and reduce the transparency of conclusions. The aim of this study is to provide a comparative analysis of filter, wrapper, and embedded feature selection methods, as well as interpretation techniques based on SHAP, with an emphasis on their practical application. As an example, the widely used California Housing dataset was employed for modeling and feature importance evaluation. The analysis utilized permutation importance, partial dependence plots, and SHAP to assess and compare the relevance of features.
