Abstract

Recently we proposed a feature selection method based on stability theory. In the present work we present an evaluation of its performance in different contexts through a grid search performed in a subset of its parameters space. The main contributions of this work are: we show that the method can improve the classification accuracy in relation to the wholebrain in different functional datasets; we evaluate the parameters influence in the results, getting some insight in reasonable ranges of values; and we show that combinations of parameters that yield the best accuracies are stable (i.e., they have low rates of false positive selections).
