Abstract

We propose and analyze new fast feature weighting algorithms based on different types of feature ranking. Feature weighting may be much faster than feature selection because there is no need to find cut-threshold in the raking. Presented weighting schemes may be combined with several distance based classifiers like SVM, kNN or RBF network (and not only). Results shows that such method can be successfully used with classifiers.
