Title: Processor and method of weighted feature importance estimation

Abstract

A method includes determining a feature importance ranking for each pair of clusters of a plurality of clusters to generate a first plurality of feature importance rankings. The method further includes determining a feature importance ranking between a particular data element and each cluster to generate a second plurality of feature importance rankings. A distance value associated with each pair of clusters of the plurality of clusters is determined to generate a plurality of distance values, and a probability value associated with each data element is determined to generate a plurality of probability values. The method further includes weighting the first plurality of feature importance rankings based on the plurality of distance values to determine a first plurality of weighted feature importance rankings and weighting the second plurality of feature importance rankings based on the plurality of probability values to determine a second plurality of weighted feature importance rankings.
