Abstract

Three feature selection techniques were used to estimate the relative utility of each of 15 laboratory tests on a data base of 316 patients with disorders of calcium homeostasis. Comparison of the relative utilities given by the feature selection methods indicated differences among the techniques as well as some findings not predicted by current medical thought. Although the preliminary results reported here are promising, further studies are needed using additional feature selection methodologies.
