Abstract

Given the recent breakthrough in constraint-based mining of local patterns, we decided to investigate its impact on feature construction for classification tasks. We discuss preliminary results concerning the use of the so-called δ-free sets. Our guess is that their minimality might help to collect important features. Once these sets are computed, we propose to select the essential ones w.r.t. class separation and generalization as new features. Our experiments have given encouraging results.
