Abstract:
This research conducts studies of the use of the Sequential Forward Floating Selection (SFFS) Algorithm and Sequential Backward Floating Selection (SBFS) Algorithm as the feature selection algorithms in the Forest Fire case study. With the supporting data that become the features of the forest fire case, we obtained information regarding the kinds of features that are very significant and influential in the event of a forest fire. Data used are weather data and land coverage of each area where the forest fire occurs. Based on the existing data, ten features were included in selecting the features using both feature selection methods. The result of the Sequential Forward Floating Selection method shows that earth surface temperature is the most significant and influential feature in regards to forest fire, while, based on the result of the Sequential Backward Feature Selection method, cloud coverage, is the most significant. Referring to the results from a total of 100 tests, the average accuracy of the Sequential Forward Floating Selection method is 96.23%. It surpassed the 82.41% average accuracy percentage of the Sequential Backward Floating Selection method.

Abstract:
Bar recursion arises in constructive mathematics, logic, proof theory and higher-type computability theory. We explain bar recursion in terms of sequential games, and show how it can be naturally understood as a generalisation of the principle of backward induction that arises in game theory. In summary, bar recursion calculates optimal plays and optimal strategies, which, for particular games of interest, amount to equilibria. We consider finite games and continuous countably infinite games, and relate the two. The above development is followed by a conceptual explanation of how the finite version of the main form of bar recursion considered here arises from a strong monad of selections functions that can be defined in any cartesian closed category. Finite bar recursion turns out to be a well-known morphism available in any strong monad, specialised to the selection monad.

Abstract:
In the past few decades, the large amount of available data has become a major challenge in data mining and machine learning. Feature selection is a significant preprocessing step for selecting the most informative features by removing irrelevant and redundant features, especially for large datasets. These selected features play an important role in information searching and enhancing the performance of machine learning models. In this research, we propose a new technique called One-level Forward Multi-level Backward Selection (OFMB). The proposed algorithm consists of two phases. The first phase aims to create preliminarily selected subsets. The second phase provides an improvement on the previous result by an adaptive multi-level backward searching technique. Hence, the idea is to apply an improvement step during the feature addition and an adaptive search method on the backtracking step. We have tested our algorithm on twelve standard UCI datasets based on k-nearest neighbor and naive Bayes classifiers. Their accuracy was then compared with some popular methods. OFMB showed better results than the other sequential forward searching techniques for most of the tested datasets.

Abstract:
Repertoire selection is one of the most impactful responsibilities music educators undertake, and the music an educator chooses for students to experience reveals implicit and explicit philosophical values. When ensemble instructors select repertoire, their decisions are often informed by an eclectic mixture of competing practical and aspirational considerations. Backward design is an instructional strategy that aligns philosophical and instructional goals and allows music instructors to purposefully select high-quality repertoire and materials as means to an end rather than an end in themselves.

A first step in model building in regression analysis often consists of selecting a parsimonious set of independent variables from a pool of candidate independent variables. This report uses simulation to study and compare the performance of two widely used sequential, variable selection algorithms, stepwise and backward elimination. A score is developed to assess the ability of any variable selection method to terminate with the correct model. It is found that backward elimination performs slightly better than stepwise, increasing sample size leads to a relatively small improvement in both methods and that the magnitude of the variance of the error term is the major factor determining the performance of both.

Abstract:
When we try to understand why some schools perform worse than others, if Covid-19 has struck harder on some demographics or whether income correlates with increased happiness, we may turn to regression to better understand how these variables are correlated. To capture the true relationship between variables we may use variable selection methods in order to ensure that the variables which have an actual effect have been included in the model. Choosing the right model for variable selection is vital. Without it there is a risk of including variables which have little to do with the dependent variable or excluding variables that are important. Failing to capture the true effects would paint a picture disconnected from reality and it would also give a false impression of what reality really looks like. To mitigate this risk a simulation study has been conducted to find out what variable selection algorithms to apply in order to make more accurate inference. The different algorithms being tested are stepwise regression, backward elimination and lasso regression. Lasso performed worst when applied to a small sample but performed best when applied to larger samples. Backward elimination and stepwise regression had very similar results.

Abstract:
In this study I examine voter response at an interview level using a dataset of 7562 voter contacts (including responses and nonresponses) in the 2004 Utah Colleges Exit Poll. In 2004, 4908 of the 7562 voters approached responded to the exit poll for an overall response rate of 65 percent. Logistic regression is used to estimate factors that contribute to a success or failure of each interview attempt. This logistic regression model uses interviewer characteristics, voter characteristics (both respondents and nonrespondents), and exogenous factors as independent variables. Voter characteristics such as race, gender, and age are strongly associated with response. An interviewer's prior retail sales experience is associated with whether a voter will decide to respond to a questionnaire or not. The only exogenous factor that is associated with voter response is whether the interview occurred in the morning or afternoon.

Portfolio selection methods are developed in many fields. Many techniques and mathematical models are used to settle related problems based on mean-variance model developed in the stock markets. Many researches focus on evaluating items and formulate portfolio from good items and the methods belong to forward-type. On the contrary, this study aims to use “backward-type” portfolio selection method. In the perspective of backward-type selection, this thesis identifies the portfolio attributes into three categories such as independent, interrelated and synergistic portfolio attributes. Other than the mean-variance model considers the risk as the selected criteria. The thesis used the performance (i.e. future return) what the investor emphasized as the target. By the statistic of partial R squares from stepwise-regression method toward performance, the investors’ attitude (i.e. relative importance) of each attribute is obtained periodically and the evaluation index is constructed. Based on the index, the study then constructed multi-criteria mixed-integer quadratic programming model and quadratic programming by different definition of synergistic attributes to obtain invested position of stocks in the portfolio. Finally, This study will have illustrations in Taiwan Stock market and find that the backward-type selection methods, company profitability and synergistic attribute including in the model will have good performance.

Portfolio selection has been developed as a decision method for centuries and it is adopted in many fields for evaluating and selecting portfolios of multi-attribute item. Many studies have dealt this problem by decomposing complicated problems and focusing on single layer of portfolio to solve the subporblems. This study aims to develop a “hyper-portfolio” selection framework for the multi-layer portfolio decision problem. Multi-layer portfolio problem is defined as a combination of portfolios which are the combinations of items. In particular, Take, for example, menu consists of combination of interrelated meals which consist of combinations of interrelated food items. The proposed generic hyper-portfolio selection framework is based on backward-type selection. The vertical interactions between two layers of portfolio are derived with portfolio interactions between portfolio components. In hyper-portfolio, identified independent, interrelated and synergistic attributes perform similar properties in portfolio selection; in addition, interdependent attribute is proposed for inseparable affiliation of portfolio elements. This thesis applies the proposed framework for menu design problem with nine food item attributes during time horizon. Based on the item attributes, the portfolio selection is for meal design; furthermore, the hyper-portfolio selection evaluates menu performance by a multi-criteria mixed-integer-linear-programming (MILP) model. Finally, the thesis illustrates the hyper-portfolio MILP model calculating process, and a real nurse house menu design case. We find that hyper-portfolio selection outperforms in dealing with multi-attribute and hierarchical decision problems.
