When seeking a predictive model in biomedical data, one often has more than a single objective in mind, e. g., attaining both high accuracy and low complexity (to promote interpretability).

Modern biomedical data mining requires feature selection methods that can (1) be applied to large scale feature spaces (e. g. `omics' data), (2) function in noisy problems, (3) detect complex patterns of association (e. g. gene-gene interactions), (4) be flexibly adapted to various problem domains and data types (e. g. genetic variants, gene expression, and clinical data) and (5) are computationally tractable.

Feature selection plays a critical role in biomedical data mining, driven by increasing feature dimensionality in target problems and growing interest in advanced but computationally expensive methodologies able to model complex associations.
