Abstract
The causes of deficiency of the Max-Min approach to feature selection are investigated. It is shown that the theoretical premise providing t he basis for the Max-Min algorithm is not necessarily valid. A conditi on under which the Max-Min algorithm is not justified is derived, and a counterexample illustrating it is presented.
