Abstract

A method and system for a feature subset-classifier pair for a classification task. The classification task corresponds to automatically classifying data associated with a subject(s) or object(s) of interest into an appropriate class based on a feature subset selected among a plurality of features extracted from the data and a classifier selected from a set of classifier types. The method proposed includes simultaneously determining the feature subset-classifier pair based on a relax-greedy {feature subset, classifier} approach utilizing sub-greedy search process based on a patience function, wherein the feature subset-classifier pair provides an optimal combination for more accurate classification. The automatic joint selection is time efficient solution, effectively speeding up the classification task.
