Wrapper Methods Project

This project explores feature selection techniques using the Obesity Dataset from the UCI Machine Learning Repository.

Techniques Used

  • Logistic Regression
  • Sequential Forward Selection (SFS)
  • Sequential Backward Floating Selection (SBFS)
  • Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE)

Dataset

Obesity Levels Based on Eating Habits and Physical Condition

Libraries

  • pandas
  • numpy
  • scikit-learn
  • mlxtend
  • matplotlib

Results

Model Accuracy
Logistic Regression 76.60%
Sequential Forward Selection 78.35%
Sequential Backward Floating Selection 78.30%
Recursive Feature Elimination 76.79%

Best Performing Model

Sequential Forward Selection (SFS) achieved the highest accuracy of 78.35% while reducing the number of features from 18 to 9.
