Abstract
Data pre-processing plays an important role in data mining for ensuring good quality of data especially dealing with industrial datasets. This work presents an exemplar case study for the prediction of the inclusions population in steel products, which demonstrates the importance of variable selection to obtain satisfactory classification accuracy and to achieve a deep understanding of the phenomenon under consideration. A novel variable selection approach has been applied for selecting the variables which mainly affect the target, preliminary to the design of the classifier. Five different classifiers have been designed and applied and the obtained results are presented, compared and discussed.
