Select Features from Model

../../../../_images/select_model.svg

Meta-transformer for selecting features based on importance weight. Only works for models with coef or feature_importances attributes.

Configuration:

  • threshold

    The threshold value to use for feature selection. Features whose importance is greater or equal are kept while the others are discarded. If “median” (resp. “mean”), then the threshold value is the median (resp. the mean) of the feature importances. A scaling factor (e.g., “1.25*mean”) may also be used. If None and if the estimator has a parameter penalty set to l1, either explicitly or implicitly (e.g, Lasso), the threshold used is 1e-5. Otherwise, “mean” is used by default.
