Problem

How do you prioritize features for a machine learning model?

Explain a practical workflow for deciding which features to retain, transform, or remove. Address leakage, redundancy, missingness, interpretability, computational cost, and how you would validate that feature prioritization improves generalization rather than fitting noise.
