Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Feature Selection: Why Feature Selection

The video discusses feature selection, a dimensionality reduction technique that improves model performance by reducing complexity and enhancing generalization. It compares feature selection with feature extraction, highlighting the ability to retain original feature identities for better model interpretation. The video also emphasizes the cost-effectiveness of feature selection in data acquisition by focusing on relevant features.
