The quality of features directly affects the performance of classification. Many feature selection methods introduced to remove redundant and irrelevant features, because raw features may reduce accuracy or robustness of classification. In this paper we proposed a new method for feature selection based on Decision Dependent Correlation (DDC). We have used SVM classifier and the results on DARPA KDD99 benchmark dataset indicate that the proposed method outperforms Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
