Iterative Feature Space Optimization through Incremental Adaptive Evaluation

ArXi:2501.14889v2 Announce Type: replace Iterative feature space optimization involves systematically evaluating and adjusting the feature space to improve downstream task performance. However, existing works suffer from three key limitations:1) overlooking differences among data samples leads to evaluation bias; 2) tailoring feature spaces to specific machine learning models results in overfitting and poor generalization; 3) requiring the evaluator to be retrained from scratch during each optimization iteration significantly reduces the overall efficiency of the optimization process.
