Feature Bagging Provides Stability

We study feature bagging through the lens of algorithmic stability. Feature bagging is an ensemble strategy that aggregates base learners trained on randomly subsampled feature subsets, possibly in a data-dependent manner.

Improving the Predictive Performance of Bootstrap Aggregating by Dirichlet Resampling

The paper revisits Breiman’s insight that lowering inter‑tree correlation can boost random forest performance. It introduces two new variants—Dirichlet‑Multinomial Bagging Random Forest (DM) and Dirichlet‑Weighted Random Forest (DW)—which adjust sample reweighting through a concentration parameter α>0. A theoretical criterion is presented to determine when these methods behave like standard random forests, guiding a lightweight tuning approach. Experiments on public classification benchmarks show DM and DW consistently match or outperform other random‑forest baselines with minimal extra runtime.

Beyond Noise: A Hypothesis Testing Approach to Robust Feature Selection

arXiv:2511. 20851v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Feature selection remains difficult in modern high-dimensional settings, and established methods such as Boruta and Recursive Feature Elimination are either computationally costly or lack a statistically justified stopping criterion for their importance scores.
