The performance of different feature selection methods can change based on the characteristics of different datasets. In this study, a feature selection method is developed, which integrates different filter-based feature selection methods by an ensemble learning approach. In the presented method, feature rankings obtained by five filter-based feature selection methods (mutual information measure, chi-square statistics, odds ratio, information gain and weighted log likelihood ratio) are aggregated by enhanced Borda count rank aggregation. In the experimental analysis, Reuters-21578 and 20 Newsgroups datasets are employed on support vector machines and C4.5 classifier. The experimental results indicate that the presented method outperforms conventional filter-based feature selection schemes.TurkishSCHEMEProceedings Paper
