arXiv:2607. 21773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we propose and study a robust variant of the smart predict-then-optimize approach that accounts for prediction shifts due to disturbance in the covariate feature space.

arXiv:2607. 03839v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse feature selection is critical for high-dimensional machine learning, yet traditional $\ell_1$-regularized methods are often brittle under observational noise and spurious correlations, leading to unstable feature supports and degraded generalization.
By Zhen Huang, Peicheng Xu, Junbiao Pang, Yulong Zheng
arXiv:2607. 24145v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature selection aims to identify the most informative and relevant features for a given dataset, either in terms of capturing the underlying data structure and distribution better, or with respect to the performance on a downstream task.

arXiv:2607. 18515v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study contributes toward development of an Automated Data Processing (ADP) framework designed to evaluate and reinforce optimal machine learning model-feature combinations for predictive tasks in fused deposition modeling (FDM) process datasets.

arXiv:2306. 14851v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Given a high-dimensional covariate matrix and a response vector, ridge-regularized sparse linear regression selects a subset of features that explains the relationship between covariates and the response in an interpretable manner.

Large language models are increasingly used as open-ended search operators in evolutionary optimization. We introduce Evolutionary Feature Engineering (EFE), a framework for using LLM-based evolution to discover preprocessing transformations for structured data.
arXiv:2608. 15095v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI systems deployed outside clean benchmark settings often rely on observations that are incomplete, unstable, costly, or degraded by monitoring failures.
