Improving ELM-Based Service Quality Prediction by Concise Feature Extraction

Algorithm 2

The EC-Miner algorithm.
Input: data set , (minimum ), and
Output: Feature Sets (FS)
(1) Set FS =
(2) Count support of 1-features in every class
(3) Generate 1-feature set()
(4) Count support of 1-features in different class
(5) Select 1-features respectively and add them to FS
(6) new feature set Generate(2-feature set())
(7) while new feature set is not empty do
(8) Count () of candidates in new feature set
(9) For each feature in ()-feature set
(10) Applying pruning 1:   IF (
(11) remove feature ;
(12) Else if there is a superset a of feature in -feature set
(13) Applying pruning 2:   that or
(14) Applying pruning 3:  
(15) Then remove feature ;
(16) Select optimal features to FS;
(17) ENDIF
(18) end while
(19) new feature set Generate(next level features sets)
(20) Return FS;
    Function 1 Generate -feature Set
(21) Let ()-feature set be empty set
(22) (Note: Obey by the * Method to Merge)
(23) for  each pair of features and in -feature set  do
(24) Insert candidate · in ()-feature set;
(25) for all   do
(26)    if   does not exist in -feature set then
(27)    Then remove candidate
(28)    end if
