| contents | Audiology entities are using Machine Learning (ML) models to guide their screening towards people at risk. Feature Engineering (FE) focuses on optimizing data for ML models, with evolutionary methods being effective in feature selection and construction tasks. This work aims to benchmark an evolutionary FE wrapper, using models based on decision trees as proxies. The FEDORA framework is applied to a Hearing Loss (HL) dataset, being able to reduce data dimensionality and statistically maintain baseline performance. Compared to traditional methods, FEDORA demonstrates superior performance, with a maximum balanced accuracy of 76.2%, using 57 features. The framework also generated an individual that achieved 72.8% balanced accuracy using a single feature. |
