Markov Blankets
Market Blankets (MB) are a promising, relatively new, set of datamining techniques for handling feature selection and related issues on Bayesian networks. Learn about MBs, read about different algorithms for implementing them , try them out for some typical problems (especially ones with many features), and write a short review paper.
