Abstract
In data mining it is important for any transforms made to training
data to be replicated on evaluation or deployment data. If they
is not, the model may perform poorly or be unable to accept the
input. Lossy data compression has other considerations, however,
for example it may not be known whether or not lossy compression
will be applied to deployment data, or if a variable compression
ratio is to be used. Furthermore, lossy data compression typically
reduces noise, which may not affect or even improve model performances, and performing feature selection on lossy data may
find better features than selecting from the original data. In this
paper, we investigate the effects of selecting features, learning, and
making predictions from data that has been compressed using lossy
transforms. Using vehicle telemetry data, we determine where in
the data mining methodology lossy compression is detrimental
or beneficial, and how it should be compressed. We also propose
a specialised feature selection approach that considers predictive
performance alongside compressibility, measured by compressing
them either individually or in a single concatenated stream
