| Abstract | ReliefF is a datamining algorithm capable of identifying attribute interactions, which is a significant challenge in genetic associations studies. ReliefF is a metric-based method that scores the relevance of an attribute to the phenotype by calculating how well the attribute separates nearest-neighbor instances with different phenotype status. The number of nearest neighbors is a user-chosen parameter, which is typically set to 10 with little further discussion. Instead of considering a fixed number of nearest neighbors, the authors consider a variable number of nearest neighbors within a fixed radius of a given instance, and they provide a statistical framework for guiding the choice of this radius. |
