Learn how to implement various feature selection methods in a few lines of code utilizing the open-source Python library Feature-engine. Feature-engine is an open-source Python library for feature engineering and feature selection. It uses Pandas and Scikit-learn under the hood to engineer and select feature subsets. Feature selection is the process of selecting a subset of features from the total variables in a data set to train machine learning algorithms. Feature selection is key for developing simpler, faster, and highly performant machine learning models. The aim of any feature selection algorithm is to create classifiers or regression models that run faster and whose outputs are easier to understand by their users. We will use the Python libraries Matplotlib, NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn and Feature-engine.
