A general extension procedure is proposed in this paper that allows applying different deterministic or random feature selection algorithms to fuzzy data. This extension is based on a model of the relevance of a feature as a possibility distribution. The possibilistic relevances are ordered with the help of a fuzzy ranking. A practical problem where the most informative software metrics are searched for in an automatic grading problem is solved with this technique.}, year = {2014}, pages = {299-308}, publisher = {Springer International Publishing}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-08644-6}, }
