Abstract

In this paper we propose a dependence measure for a pair of features. This measure aims at identifying redundant features where the relationship between the features is characterized by higher degree polynomials. An algorithm is also proposed to make effective use of this dependence measure for the feature selection. Neither the calculation of dependence measure, nor the algorithm need the class values of the observations. So they can be used for clustering as well as classification.
