Wrapper Feature Selection Algorithm for the Optimization of an Indicator System of Patent Value Assessment

View CodeNotebook

Effective patent value assessment provides decision support for patent transection and promotes the practical application of patent technology. The limitations of previous research on patent value assessment were analyzed in this work, and a wrapper-mode feature selection algorithm that is based on classifier prediction accuracy was developed. Verification experiments on multiple UCI standard datasets indicated that the algorithm effectively reduced the size of the feature set and significantly enhanced the prediction accuracy of the classifier. When the algorithm was utilized to establish an indicator system of patent value assessment, the size of the system was reduced, and the generalization performance of the classifier was enhanced. Sequential forward selection was applied to further reduce the size of the indicator set and generate an optimal indicator system of patent value assessment.
