Hi,
I want to use simple forward feature selectionin RStudio, starting with an empty set and then adding one feature at each stage. I was using CAST package, but it is taking forever to complete as it starts with trying combination of 2 features. Can you please guide me which package i can use to implement forward feature selection?
The one i am using already is;
ffs {CAST}
ffs(
predictors,
response,
method = "rf",
metric = ifelse(is.factor(response), "Accuracy", "RMSE"),
maximize = ifelse(metric == "RMSE", FALSE, TRUE),
globalval = FALSE,
withinSE = FALSE,
minVar = 2,
trControl = caret::trainControl(),
tuneLength = 3,
tuneGrid = NULL,
seed = sample(1:1000, 1),
verbose = TRUE,
...
)
