Abstract
⺠We find that feature selection improves performance of metagenomic taxonomic classification with SVMs. ⺠The mRMR information theoretic method is the best feature selection method, especially for the phylum level. ⺠Using feature selection with 9mers does not improve over 6mer feature selection.
