RT journal article T1 A robust SVM-based approach with feature selection and outliers detection for classification problems A1 Baldomero Naranjo, Marta A1 Martínez Merino, Luisa Isabel A1 Rodríguez Chía, Antonio Manuel A2 Estadística e Investigación Operativa K1 Data Science K1 Classification K1 Support Vector Machine K1 Outliers Detection K1 Feature selection K1 Mixed Integer Programming AB This paper proposes a robust classification model, based on support vector machine (SVM), which simultaneously deals with outliers detection and feature selection. The classifier is built considering the ramp loss margin error and it includes a budget constraint to limit the number of selected features. The search of this classifier is modeled using a mixed-integer formulation with big M parameters. Two different approaches (exact and heuristic) are proposed to solve the model. The heuristic approach is validated by comparing the quality of the solutions provided by this approach with the exact approach. In addition, the classifiers obtained with the heuristic method are tested and compared with existing SVM-based models to demonstrate their efficiency.
