High-dimensional datasets with heavy noise often cause downstream continuous classifiers (like Logistic Regression) to overfit. By inserting ``Calf`` as a preliminary feature selector, non-informative features are pruned using discrete forward selection prior to weight optimization. ``CalfCV`` automatically optimizes CALF's weight search grid, AUC tolerance, and column pre-sorting strategy via internal cross-validation before passing the pruned feature subset downstream. We compare the cross-validated ROC-AUC and Accuracy of: 1. Baseline Logistic Regression (no feature selection, all 200 features) 2. CALF-preprocessed Logistic Regression (unsorted baseline) 3. CALF-preprocessed Logistic Regression (pre-sorted baseline) 4. CalfCV Preprocessor (automated grid search over grid, auc_tol, order_col) 5.

GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 213-231 Key Trade-off Interpretation ---------------------------- 1. Validation of Internal Grid Search: The grid search converged on `order_col=True` and `auc_tol=0.001` as the winning hyperparameter combination. This matches the manual `CALF (Pre-Sorted)` baseline exactly (6 signal features, 0 noise features), confirming that `CalfCV`'s internal cross-validation successfully discovers optimal feature selection settings on hold-out folds. 2. Automated Hyperparameter Search vs. Runtime: While `CalfCV` incurs higher computational runtime during `fit()` due to nested cross-validation across candidate parameters, it removes the need for manual hyperparameter guessing or outer pipeline tuning. 3. Dynamic Feature Termination & Superior Noise Suppression: Unlike traditional feature selectors (e.g., `SelectKBest`) that require guessing a hardcoded feature count `k` and allowed 3 noise features through (85% noise reduction), CALF dynamically prunes noise using early-stopping criteria, achieving 100% noise suppression (0 noise features selected) and protecting downstream models from overfitting. .. rst-class:: sphx-glr-timing **Total running time of the script:** (0 minutes 56.067 seconds) .. _sphx_glr_download_auto_examples_plot_algorithm_leverage.py: .. only:: html .. container:: sphx-glr-footer sphx-glr-footer-example .. container:: sphx-glr-download sphx-glr-download-jupyter :download:`Download Jupyter notebook: plot_algorithm_leverage.ipynb ` .. container:: sphx-glr-download sphx-glr-download-python :download:`Download Python source code: plot_algorithm_leverage.py ` .. container:: sphx-glr-download sphx-glr-download-zip :download:`Download zipped: plot_algorithm_leverage.zip ` .. only:: html .. rst-class:: sphx-glr-signature `Gallery generated by Sphinx-Gallery `_
