Machine learning (ML) feature networks are a type of graph that connects ML features based on their similarity. This network representation allows us to view feature vectors as functions on the network. By leveraging function operations from Fourier analysis and functional analysis, one can generate new and novel features by utilizing the graph structure imposed on the feature vectors. The authors describe feature networks as graph structures on feature vectors and provide applications in ML. One application involves graph-based generalizations of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which use hierarchical representations of features with varying depth or complexity. This extends to learning algorithms that generate multilevel features. Additionally, feature networks can be used to engineer new features, enhancing the expressiveness of the model. A specific example is a deep tree-structured feature network that forms hierarchical connections through feature clustering and feed-forward learning, resulting in low learning complexity and computational efficiency.

Machine learning (ML) feature networks are a new way to connect ML features together based on how similar they are. This helps us create new and interesting features by combining old ones in new ways. The authors show that this type of network can be used for things like image recognition and biology research. They also use it to make better neural networks, which can learn more complicated patterns.
